I am refurbishing on old Cushcraft 6M beam, which uses a gamma match
with plastic tubing of some sort as the dielectric in the matching
capacitor. I am getting some quite anomalous readings with my AA-55,
with the antenna about 6 feet above ground. I know that such results
may be quantitatively off, but wonder if the meter should be otherwise
reliable. Is the AA-55 to be trusted at 50 MHz?
