[Amps] Bird Slug Frequency Curves

[Gary Schafer]

Hi Jim,

I always thought that the higher power Bird slugs were more broad banded? As
I remember that is what their charts show in the manual.

It is interesting that you find that not so. How much of a roll off do you
see on the 2500 HF on 160 and 10 meters compared to the LP100A ?

Thanks
Gary  K4FMX
