[SixClub] Odd Rig Behavior on 6M

Hello,

Could a antenna match have anything to do? I remember
when I was experimenting with my homebrew dipoles with
a Maxar 80 that when a mismatch ocurred, the radio
would draw a ridiculous amount of current (Thank God
the Duracomm Power supply would not mind ;-)). If the
rig is doing that only on that band, the differing
element would be the antenna. I would try a different
antenna or optimize the existing one before applying
autotune.

My two cents
