I installed a Polyphaser B50HU-C1 on the 80/40 Butternut HF-2V. It looks like it is now an open circuit. I'll verify that tomorrow when I got some daylight. Anyone experience that before ?? 73, Dick,
I made a mistake on the Part Number, it's the -C0 HF 3KW version. Everything worked fine all day on 80 & 40, then I QRT'ed. Later that evening I fired up and the SWR was out of sight. I removed the P
Anyone know where I can a few "beehive" ceramic feedthru's ? I don't need monsters, something like 1" dia will do. Tnx, Dick, W1KSZ _______________________________________________ ___________________
I have a Butternut HF-2V Vertical and I want to see if by tapping the 80 meter coil I can shift the rather narrow bandwidth (3500, 3580, 3800). So I need some Coil Taps to fit the 0.220" Aluminum Wir
But I expect that like most digital instruments it is +/- 1 digit at the last digit, so a reading of 00.2 degree could actually be from 00.1 to 00.3 and still be in tolerance. And I thought the Timen
Now that I have some decent test gear, I would like to do some swept SWR measurements of several antennas I have. I have an HP 8350B, but would like to get some references to published articles on th

I found one of these while unpacking from my move. I recall I used it once with a pair of 30 mtr phased verticals, but remember little else. A Google search came up empty. Anyone recall the specs on
I bought a TBR-160 add-on kit for my HF-2V (second hand). Unfortunately, it arrived with one of the 200 pf Ceramic Caps broken. The threaded stud has come loose from the ceramic body. It looks like s
Anyone know of a source for a 40' push-up mast in the Tucson area ? I want to try hanging a "droopy dipole" for 160. Tnx, Dick, W1KSZ _______________________________________________ _________________

What would you suggest I use to match 50 ohm coax to 450 ohm twinlead ? I'm thinking of putting up a 160 dipole. Thanks, Dick, W1KSZ _______________________________________________ __________________

The 7J4AAL Yagi is impressive, but what does he do with it ?? I have worked a lot of DX on 80/75 but he's not in my log. Rest assured, if I heard a JA on 80 in New England, I would be in their till I
