[TowerTalk] Shunt Feed Woes

[Jim Brown]

The company's definition of success is that the unit doesn't fail 
destructively -- that is, overheat and destroy itself. Perfect as a 
business philosophy if the only test instrument your customer owns is an 
SWR meter and maybe an antenna analyzer. The problem is that their 
primary effect is to transfer dollars from the buyer to the seller.

I don't sell anything, and have no relationships with anyone who does. 
My own designs, based on extensive research and lab work and published 
for free, are vastly superior to any commercial products I know of and 
easy to build.
