Borrow a copy of every ARRL/RSGB publication with the word "antenna" in the title. Lots of thud power and it illustrates just how important antennas are to amateurs and amateur radio. 73, Dick -- Dic

That last sentence got my attention. "May just be necessary to reposition the wiring across relay." When I first put my AL-1200 on the air, I had problems with instability on 10 meters. Ameritron tol

I posted the anecdote about my AL-1200 relay before reading Jose's final message. From that and a few others, it appears the T/R relay is a very weak link in Ameritron's amplifiers. I know Tom W8JI h
