I also had to print the manual from the website. I put mine together this
week for field day. Going by their measurements from the manual I checked
the VSWR using the MFJ 259B analyzer and it showed 1.8 +/-. I was able to
get the VSWR down to 1.1 with the following changes; The DE should be 30
3/8, the set was 16 1/2, and the X was 1 1/4. Have fun this weekend and look
for the Carroll County club (K3PZN).
