It is very readable Doug, thank you.

Once I finish a modification on a Geiger counter, finding a mike and 
connector for my T4XC, and redo my capacity hat for my HiQ 5-160 mobile 
antenna, this tuner project will be next on my to do list .... hi hi

Have a TS-480HX in the mobile, and a FT-1000MP on the base feeding that 
windom antenna. Some times am on 7218 or 7225 of late, but available for 
a schedule if you like. Am retired a few months, so can be flexible ...
