[SixClub] Tuning & Measuring 6M Signals with MFJ's?

[kd4e]

It looks fine on the rig indicator but putting
either the RS or the MFJ meter in-line results
in no reading.

I had the MFJ-941D on bypass and the MFJ-920
also has a bypass switch.  No joy.

Band is dead so it's a good afternoon, during
breaks in planting the garden, to test things
out!

BTW:  How does one know for certain that they
have the T or TH version?  The pictures I see
online show them all with only DX-70 on the
faceplate.  The low 6M output makes me wonder
if I was lied to and this is a 70T and not a
70TH.
