[TowerTalk] Tuning vertical SWR-Analyzer vs SWR bridge

I do have a local AM station about 3 miles away but only 2500 watts daytime and 500 at night. They are off from midnight to 6:00AM and I did check the antenna with the AIM during quiet hours with no change. I really suspected that could be the issue also. I also tried both short and long coax cables to the analyzers but no big difference. I suspect a problem in the antenna but wonder why the analyzers and SWR meters are so different. I will probably have to check the seal on the traps.

Thanks,

Phil N3ZP
