With my question already being answered above, then it is safe to assume that one could screw the swr meter directly to the antenna to tune it, as...
Ok, just wanted to make sure before he keys down on it. He has no interest in a chance of burning up his "pride and joy" of a radio. Thanks...
The antenna was previously tuned with a cheaper 50 Ohm 18' cable. He upgraded the cable quality and is still 18' in lenght. He does not own a...
Buddy of mine just upgraded his coax to RG-8x. Will he need to have his SWRs rechecked? Does changing coax cable flirt with SWRs?
I'd watch that source as a grounding point. From my car audio days, I've seen way to many people hook the amp gound wire to the seat bolts and...
So adding a second coil to the antenna would not help the transmission or receiving distances? It would just allow the wip to maybe be shorter...

I knew from the get go that this thread was going to open a jumbo sized can of worms for my buddy. Opinions are just like buttholes, everybody...
Lol, I know I see a lot powerful stuff when I'm checking them in for service.
Yeah, I never knew a simple question from a newbie about a 10 meter radio would carry on quite like this. I think my thread got hijacked. Got...
Interesting.
Well Golden Eagle, with all that said, It would probably be well worth the money to have the rig unwack packed or sell it and buy a new one from...
What the heck is this? Autobots? Does this happen in all the threads?
Dang, this is a pretty stiff forum. Just had 4 replies removed that used no foul language. Guess I better watch how I respond to others....
SWR's are down in the 1.2 to 1.4 range on a Wilson 2000, RK-56 mic is in place and the Super Wack Pack w/ Super Recieve was done to the radio when...
How can you tell if your radio is splattering without taking it to someone and having it opened up? Would this be the same as bleeding over on...
Thank goodness I'm asking these questions for someone else and not "MYSELF"!
