Yes! Thanks for pointing that out. I was doing some loop experimenting at 
500K and forgot to return the modulation switch to the normal position. I've 
been sending only on the vertical (the M) for a number of weeks but at only 
about 1/3 of a watt. I keep snagging the counterpoise radials with the 
roll-over bar and the exhaust stack on the tractor, not to mention an 
occasional moose intrusion, and this throws the tuning off. I'll straighten 
that out (no pun intended :) on my return tomorrow night.
