[TowerTalk] Swinging Link Antenna Tuner Not Working

[Barrie Smith]

Chuck:

I suggested that you visit the Cebik website some time ago.

Have you done that?

I cannot imagine that everything  you need isn't there.

He has a tutorial and schematics on balanced antenna tuners there.  I
studied the tutorials before I built my antenna tuner.  It worked very well
on first try.

> Does anyone have pictures and component values for a swinging link antenna
tuner that works well.  My swinging link antenna tuner will not work.  I
tried feeding the open wire line in the series (current feed) and parallel
(voltage feed) configuration but it would not work.
>   Maybe my capacitor and coils are not the right values?  The feed-line is
1/4 wavelength multiples.  At present, I don' t want to use a series
capacitor with the link coil.
>   Any help would be greatly appreciated.
