Gordon and the rest of the list:
I built one and used it in portable operation this summer with my Triton
and a random wire. It made all of the difference in the world. Without
it, the tuner was barely able to manage the swr and I had very few
contacts. The simple addition of the 1251 brought the antenna and tuner
under control and made (according to other hams) a dramatic improvement in
my signal.
I highly recommend it!!!
