[ICOM] Location of low pass filter

[Larry Benko]

NO!  The lowpass filter is designed to be at a 50 ohm impedance which is 
probably not what you would see on the output side of the tuner.  Also 
the voltages/currents on the line on the output side of the tuner could 
damage the lowpass filter.

THe current one I have is between the rig and antenna tuner, which seems to be the common place to put one.  Can a low pass filter go on the other side of the tuner-between the antenna tuner and the antenna, or might that mess things up since the tuner might now see the low pass filter as the load?
