Wouldn’t the SWR swinging still be happening while running the tube type by itself?

Don’t have a dummy load that will handle 1.5 KW. To find out. But just changing it from a tube type driver to a solid state stopped the bouncing fluctuation. My problem is solved but just trying to understand why a tube amp driving a solid state would cause that issue.

It’s a straight 10.

Strange swr behavior resolved. Galaxy 2547 dead key .75 watts 4 tube 6jb6 driving x-force 10 pill. Anytime I turned the dead key up past a 200 watt my swr would go from 1.2 steady to bouncing erratically all the way to 3. Some research pointed me toward a bad connection on my coax or arching...

And should it be isolated from the mast?

Considering building a 5/8 wave ground plane for my base. If using a gamma match to feed a ground plane antenna would the radials and verticals be electrically common?

My L6 lightning quad is mounted on a hazer with non conductive wheels. How critical is it to have a direct ground connection to the boom?

Roger that.

Thanks Linearone. I’m going to need like 4 of these to power my amp. $520 for the megawatt is a bit high. Mouser sells the mean well for about $60. Mouser is a vary well known supplier. https://www.mouser.com/ProductDetail/MEAN-WELL/LRS-600-12?qs=Znm5pLBrcAKdbBr%2FwUxVsA%3D%3D I guess I’ll...

https://www.worldwidedx.com/threads/voltage-drop-with-power-supply-when-in-use-problem.269429/#post-852507. This is the thread I read. Linearone recommend a mean well or a Megawatt. This is thread that got me researching the Mean Well. I was hoping someone would read my post that had owned a...

I read one thread on here which lead me to mean well. Not sure which thread I found it on. I’ll try to find it. I think the Chinese knock offs are poor copies of the mean well supply. The link talks about this. I will try to find the thread I read it on...

Thanks for the information.

I have a amp to power. Does the Mean Well LRS-600-12 cause any receive interference?

Anyone know much about a Sark 100? I have one that shows a output frequency 40.010 when it is actually 27.205. If anyone knows how to correct this I’d like to know.
