UPDATE......

Sorry for the silly question about aerial lengths but it transpired that the
impedance transformer was faulty !!! ...... it wasn`t responding too well,
the replacement works very well down to 100kcs as a receive ant and
covers 160m to 10m with an average 2:1 swr ......
The aerial is an inverted `L` 63 feet long with multiband counterpoise.....


Hi Len,

How did you make the SWR determination?
