Bill, the middle shunt is 65 ohms. The (.) dot was ment for the abbreviated
word approximately (appox.). Sorry for the confusion. The exciter is running
50 ohm coax through a tuner and watt meter and then into a dipole via 650
ohm open wire line at this point. The T pad resistance values are taken from
the Heathkit HA-10 manual and agree with yours.
