Thanks for the advice. I think I'm getting out okay. I hooked up my
MFJ-267 Watt meter dummy load and when I have the power set to 10 watts I'm
getting close to 10 watts forward but the reflected is about 5 so that tells
me the antenna is the issue. I have a KAT2 ready to install so I would bet
I will get better results once I install the tuner. I will lengthen the
counterpoise to 32' and see what happens. Since I'm upstairs in a spare
bedroom as an office /shack should I run the counterpoise on the floor,
which I'm doing now or hang it out the window? I don't think hanging out
the window is the right idea.
Thanks again.
73,
