I have two antennas for 40M, a Carolina Windom and a full-wave parasitic
sloper, the latter fed through a 4:1 balun. The 1500's tuner handles
both antennas nicely, and I have trained it on both of them, but when I
switch from the Windom to the sloper (on an external antenna switch),
the output power changes from ~1400 watts to nearly 1700, often
triggering a high current fault. Any way around that?
