Sorry, guys:
In my earlier post, I said the following:
"What I have noticed is that the TS590's meter gives me a 5 to 1 SWR at the
top and bottom of the band, with the lowest SWR at about 2.0 to 1 around
18.300 or 18.400 MHZ. Also, the TS590's internal auto-tuner seems to tune
the antenna from the top to the bottom of the band with no problem."
Actually, I meant to say that I get an SWR of 3 to 1 at the bottom of 160
meters, using the TS590's internal meter.
Sorry for the incorrect info earlier; it has been a really long work day,
and it isn't over yet! (smile)
