[TenTec] Tuner for the Pegasus

[Mark Erbaugh]

Steve,

I use an LDG tuner with all my rigs. When I tune the Omni VI, if I forget to
reduce the power output, the Omni VI over-current will usually trip while
the LDG is tuning.  Incidentally, I had originally installed the AirPax
magnetic breaker on the power leads to my Omni VI as I was using a 3rd party
(Astron) Power supply. In all cases, the Omni VI's over-current tripped and
not once did the AirPax, so I've removed it from the power line.

I do however, keep an AirPax breaker in the power line to my Pegasus. Since
the N4PY software automatically reduces power before tuning, I've not had it
trip out.

73,
Mark
