surprized that nobody mentioned the sgc tungers

My SGC-230 will tune everything including no antenna
at all. I once forgot to install the coil and stinger
on my mobile antenna. The SGC-230 faithfully tuned the
three foot bottom section to resonance on 75m. :-)

Yeah, my MFJ 993B does the same thing, but the coax losses will KILL your
signal!

What, are you using 300ft of RG58?

No, I am using 360' of #12 jacketed for the loop, and approx 70' or so of
RG58u for the feed line.

73's

No, just 37 feet of RG8X. But that's enough to have significant losses
when the SWR is up in the 30-60 range, which it easily reaches if I put the
wrong whip on the mount.
