Yeah, I tried all sorts of different coax situations, then I went from the
Yagi to a 40/30m sloper attached to the tower. I was able to tune it down
to a very low swr using the 218 tuner, but when I put the power to it, it
got up to about 85-90 watts and then it just shut down... Guess I will be
calling Dolly Parton land tomorrow... I have been soooo happy with the
solid performance of the rig... *sigh*
