[Icom] IC-765 tuner problem

[icom@mailman.qth.net]

Hello,

I have tried the adjustment procedures found on the various mods
sites. However the problem is not one of tuner hunting.

I've been using a multi-band dipole and wanted to compare it
to a longwire with a tuner. The 765's tuner worked fine on the
dipole. When I switched to the longwire it started acting up.
Once I get it to actually tune with the longwire, it then
behaves normally and quickly. If I then switch back to the dipole
the problem will again occur.

I recently aquired a dip meter and do realize that my antennas
are not perfectly tuned.

73,

Don
