Bob, and the gang, I added a random length of LMR400 coax between the output of the coupler and the 1:1 balun. I’am guessing I’m tuning the coax and not so much coupling energy into the doublet. But now, the palstar and the Ten Tec 238 can find a tuning solution at 1.8000 mhz. Without the extra length coax length, neither one would. I have not tried other frequencies yet on either coupler. Remember, I changed the length of the coax from the back of the tuner to the 1: 1 balun. NOT the length of the 600 ohm feed line mike, WB8VGE Mike Bryce prosolar@sssnet.com |
