[Johnson] Drake MN-2000 160 meter mods..?

Thu, 9 May 2002 20:40:08 -0700

Hi Jordan:
A similar mod has been done to the EFJ KW Matchbox. Entails
increasing inductance to the coil and adding parallel capacitance (I
think but I'll have to check my ER backissues). Shouldn't be that
much of a problem. Plan on using ladderline/twinlead for your feeders
or unbal coax? A relay switched inductor and caps may do the trick
(like what was done to a Desk KW). Just a thought.
