I have a Centurion and it works fine on 17m - full output. Set
bandswitch to 15m and, in my case, with my antenna, I set Load to 9.7
and Tune to 2.0. For 12m. I set bandswitch to 10m. and Load to 6.7 and
Tune to 1.8.
The Titan is obviously different if Jim set his bandswitch in the 20m position
for 17m and 15m position for 12m.

Can't get it to work on 17 meters. Any comments appreciated.
My three Titan 425s work on 17M in the 20M position of the
bandswitch (and on 12M in the 15M position). In both cases it puts
out full power, and tuning is at the low extremes of the two
capacitors. The Titan 425 was designed around 1980 when ham
allocations on those bands didn't yet exist, but were being
proposed).
