[Elecraft] K3 Hi SWR when sending CW

[Geoffrey Mackenzie-Kennedy]

Barry,

If the problem is not solved by Vic's suggestion to "choke" your feeder, 
could you please let us know the length of the coax feeder (in feet or 
metres) between your fan dipole's feedpoint and your K3.  Also how long is 
the part of the feeder which is indoors?

73,
