You are seeing the results of using the ATU for
a purpose it was not designed for. Internal ATU's in general, were never intended to be used as full range tuners. They were intended to be used as "line flatteners", where the mismatch is not too far out of line...I would use a stouter outboard tuner to do what you are doing...It's doesn't have to be fancy. A simple L tuner would probably match most of what you are doing...BTW...On the bands with very high SWR, your loss using that rg-58 is going to be substantial. How bad, depends on the SWR. If you are under 5:1 or so, not too awful bad...Over 10:1, it's starting to be loss oclock.. MK |
