Hey all. Ran a bit of the 160 contest tonight and noticed that after
about 45 minutes of heavy use power output started falling off on
my homebrew 3 x 4-500 amp. The input SWR isn't changing but
the output tuning seems to be effected. After 5 minutes cool off
its back up to full legal output. Could the plate blocking caps, a
pair of TV door knob types, be the culprit? Any ideas?
