Yes. Also, when first experimenting with them, I tried the higher
bandswitch setting for both. As I recall, I could make 17M work on
either the 20M or 15M setting. Perhaps the same on 12M. Don't
recall, but my operating notes to myself, based on that testing,
says to run 17M on 20 and 12 on 15M.
BTW -- two of the three units I have can be run at greatly reduced
drive level (about 8W) to put out 200W on 30M, and I do that
occasionally when chasing a rare one. The bandswitch setting that
works best is 40M. The oldest of the three (VERY early production)
won't work on 30M at all. Behavior suggests that one of the bandpass
filters is preventing it.
