[TowerTalk] SWR Readings

[Don Moman VE6JY]

if you have significant energy from local broadcasting stations, it will
overwhelm the broad band circuitry
and elevate the readings.  I am over 80km from the nearest broadcast
station but the MFJ type of analyser  is almost pinned on any of the 160
meter dipoles here.  It's OK on 80m and up.
