[TowerTalk] Hustler 5BTV Problem

Won't tune on 40?   High vswr on 20?

I suspect a bad 20m trap.   10 and 15 are ok.   20 is wierd.. trap in backwards?

Might be enough to keep 40m from tuning... and isn't the 80m tuning really a top loading?
So it may tune somewhere on 80, but not where intended, even if one of the traps is hosed.

Check the 20m trap.   

Also, it would be a good idea to measure the antenna AT the antenna, just to remove
questions about the feed line.   This assumes you have or can borrow an antenna bridge.
