[Lowfer] 1.856Mhz QRSS-3 on the air

[Rick Beatty]

Hi Steve, yes your correct -- i retuned the end fed wire -- I put my scope
on the output of the tuner and peaked it up I got a little more out of it
but it still may not be enough -- However, I am seeing coupling from my
500Kc antenna -- as indicated on the meter -- so there is something getting
out there -- but it might not be enough for this type of antenna. In some
sense this is good, and Like you said you were using a full size sloper.,
So, it could very well be that these shorted antennas are not the best for
this kind of work.

Talk in awhile -- Rick
