Hi all,
I finally fixed the problems I was having on the 160m alignment.  I
could not get 10W no matter how I tried.  Thanks go to Don, W3FPR and
Bob, G3VVT for their ideas.  In the end, I did not seem to be getting
any joy when tuning L3 and L4.  L4 I could peak but nothing seemed to be
happening with L3 so I took the heatsink off (yet again!).
Would you believe the fault had been there since I built the rig and I
had never noticed up to this point.  On terminal of L3 was not
soldered.  It must have been making a little on the through plating. 
Once soldered I now could tune properly on 160m :-)
Lots of learning learnt!
