This thing is incredible for SWR. Box said it was pretuned to 27.205. I
ran the
meter and the needle bairly budges. I tried it a few times to make sure I
didn't
screw it up. No change. I then used the radio's SWR. No change. I used and
Autek
RF analyzer I borrowed. Same thing. And the damn SWR is flat above and
below.

BTW, hey Chad, thanks for the info on Bury-Flex. I used it and it works
great.

No problem, I love that stuff! Sounds like we have a similar antenna rig,
Bury-flex and an Imax2K!

I have lots of critters 'round here and not one chew mark on the coax.


I ran PVC for the trenched part.

BTW I am also expieriencing the same SWR measurements with the Imax.....
Have you witnessed it in high winds yet... hehe.


I have it in trees, so the wind is reduced. AT least a little.


How 'bout putting it up,
was it fun to deal with that floppy sucka or what ?!


It was a bitch. Not recommended for a one man job.
