Hi Bill and co:
FB on your finding the problem *however* I am

actually a problem? Usually, when it comes to
load/tune controls on any radio, I'm usually looking
at the output of the unit (as in a power meter) rather
than relying on the control markings (as I think you
were indicating here). Let us know. Thanks. Cal,
