Hi Rich,


Mine will cover all the ssb portion of 20. The  bottom 5 khz 14.150 - 155
swr is 2:1   Not sure about the  double dip you mention, but mine is flat at
14.200  rising a bit higher in the band but not  higher than  1.4 and
dropping  again  to 1.2 at the top of the band.   I use the  tuner for cw
portion.

Tying this in with  the recent thread about  do-it-yourself  antenna
installation, my main reason for going  with this antenna  was that I wanted
something  small and light that I could install myself on a push-up mast in
the back yard (23 feet).  I went with a small tv rotator that is too light
to turn my Mosley.   I didn't want to deal with  the extra weight  of the
Ham IV  rotor I have packed away here right now.  Also more money to make
the Ham IV  accessible.   The tv rotor has a remote control that lets me
punch in  a 3 digit compass heading and  the rotor  turns to it.

73, Steve KW3A
