Hi Steve, says I can vouch for your friend's claims. I have to be careful here to be sure I have the correct antenna connected, no way can I tell by the S meter alone. I'm on a rural (one lane dirt)

Hi Peter, Great answer! I never thought about broadband IMD generating hash in a receiver front end. That doesn't seem to be a problem with my 751A's. I wondered the same thing myself, why so many pe

Hi Tom, There obviously is a non-linear device at "work" somewhere in the area of your system. If it was actually generated in your antenna, it would probably stop for a while after you transmitted.
