[TenTec] swr

[Rick - NJ0IP / DJ0IP]

George,

If someone is not at all interested, that's ok.  They can delete without
reading.

If someone is interested but doesn't understand all of this, Phil, AD5X has
a PowerPoint presentation on his web site which explains a lot of this in a
simple way, using drawings and simple examples.

Remember, this thread originated from an OM with a TenTec transceiver and a
TenTec amp and a problem feeding his 43 ft. vertical antenna. 
As Jerry said, we all use antennas.
Most of us are forced to use verticals, due to space limitations. 
Therefore I think this is the correct venure for this type of discussion.

This discussion needs to be in a venue where people understand antennas.

My point entirely. I suggested the AV-6110 in jest (where I should have 
marked it with ;<)_)but its a real solution for those long in pocket and 
short on building.
