[TenTec] 238 tuner + 600 ohm open wire

[Robert & Linda McGraw K4TAX]

Lloyd:

Be sure that you have the jumper in place between the left and center 
terminals as viewed from the rear of the tuner.  The open wire line connects 
between the outer most 2 terminals.

The rig should not be connected to antenna #4 on the tuner. It should be 
connected to the SO-239 connector labeled INPUT.

Yes the Orion SWR indication is between the radio and the tuner as it should 
be.

Once configured correctly it should work just fine.
