[TowerTalk] TH-11 Drifting in the rain

[Paul Baldock]

On my newly installed TH-11 SWR minimums move lower in frequency on all
bands when wet. It moves about -80K on 20M, 15M, 17M, -300K on 12M and
-200K on 10M. It's not the obvious like traps upside down.

The antennas in the clear (except for an XM240 11ft above it).

Anybody else ever experience and solve this?

I have Wet and Dry SWR curves I can EMAIL to anybody interested.

Thanks

Paul - KW7Y
