hey Dan:
Yeah, I have just been using the SWR Setting on the radio, but I don't have a high trust value in it yet...
I really want to throw a g5rv up into the trees in the backyard, but need a tuner for that. I bought the wire today and am waiting to order some ladder line from Universal Radio (that's the cheapest I found so far!).
