Hi Jim
The SWR meter works OK with the tuner not in the circuit. I can adjust
the SWR down with a different tuner in series and it stays down fine.
I've just about narrowed it down to the caps. I took the roller
inductor out yesterday and put it in a different tuner and the SWR stays
steady. So - I'd say it has to either be the switch or the caps. Maybe
bad connection on the bearings or something. Gonna take the caps out
today and physically check them out.
