well about a month ago i put up my Inv-L , it is now ~165ft , I have an air variable in series , and 12 radials anywhere from 150-250ft long ( going out to add more as soon as i am done typing this). my SWR wasn't too bad maybe 1.7:1 at the best. Two nights ago I added an amplifier to the mix ~700w , well to make a long story short I smoked one of the relays in my RCS-10 , I am now not too sure what to do , I don't want to keep blowing out relays in the RCS-10.

I had several responses back then regarding matching etc... , but , in my haste i seem to have deleted them :-( 

so here i am again asking for advice...

any help greatly appreciated
