I love my Jupiter. With a properly tuned ANT it works like a champ. I
did have some RF problems when running PSK31 and they were solved by
simple common sense changes:
(1) grounded the rig, tuner, and PC together
(2) added RF Chokes (cheap RS style) on AF lines in/out
(3) changed coax to 9913flex (CableXperts)
(4) running appropriate PSK power (i.e. < 50W )

Now all set on HF9V and Carolina Windom with no problems on any band or
any mode. Consistently get excellent reports from all over the world.
