If your tuner is anything like the Palstar, you need to run a jumper from the random wire terminal to the balanced wire terminal.  Hope it's an easy fix!   73, Ed NI6S Can somone help me out, i have

Hi Tony I have something similar. Is that a 160m dipole. I have about 126 feet I think on either side of the center insulator, fed with 450 wire open wire feeder and then a choke balun and about 20 f

Hi Tony! See if you can borrow a different balanced feed antenna tuner as a test. Maybe there is a problem with your ATR-30. Your antenna should work great, so don't give up! 73! Tim K3LR Can somone

I wonder about your situation - setup... You say you have 47 feet of window line feeder... Hmmmm... that would put it, at best, only 47 feet above ground, assuming the center of your dipole is exactl

Did you check the wire elements for continuity? If you are using insulated wire, there could be a break in one of the side elements and that could mess up your SWR ratings. Same for a break in the fe

Even if there is a dead short where the antenna attaches to the feedline, there should be a minimum somewhere. Very narrow, but minimum. I know from experience whence I speak :-). I'd check the tuner

I would use a Antenna Analyzer in place of the radio to tune it the first time. Then write down the settings. If the settings are very narrow, they will be hard to find using the radio, but a lot eas

Pretty much has to be the tuner. Either needing a jumper or something wrong with it. ANt should tune just fine. Michael Goins, k5wmg Professor, Writing University of Texas at San Antonio Please do no

Tony: parallel a few 2 watt resistors to give you 400-500 ohms and install at balanced output of tuner. Put a few watts into tuner at desired frequency. Check the results. If that is ok, reinstall la
