I'm only guessing, Jim, but maybe take a look at what else is being 
switched at the same time (like the inductors, and the output 
configuration).  It is my understanding that Ten Tec amps are Pi-L only 
on the lower bands, which changes the network design, and may impact 
what values of C are needed back in the tank.
