a funny thing....

not funny    ha ha,   but funny    hmmmmmm


i'm the guy w/the th7 that had an odd swr curve on 15m. i rearranged my
shack tonite and while doing this, checked the swr w/ my mfj meter,
starting at the remote coax switch.

now the funny thing,  
when i checked the swr after putting up the antenna, the odd swr.
checking at the switch, w/o all the stuff in the line, just like the manual
says, nice and flat.
checking after adding each piece of equipment, still nice and flat. 
finally everything in line. radio, amp, tuner, low pass filter, remote
switch. nice and flat.

now the hmmmmm thing. what made the swr funny in the first place?  loose
connector? bad jumper? how can i keep this from happening again?
