I have been experimenting with my antenna, and different baluns.  Just for 
fun, I have been bypassing the external tuner, seeing where the ts-480 
internal tuner will match the antenna.  Then I have been checking the real 
SWR with the TW1.
I got a match on 60 meters, and the tw1 gave me a 12.7 to 1 reading.
That's amazing matching for an internal tuner!
I get very different tuner settings if I use the external heath balun or the 
internal MFJ balun.  I wonder what a field strength meter would indicate?
