    Mean well LRS-600-12

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

    Sark 100 output frequency don’t match

    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.

    Replaced all those 1/4 wave jumpers to my shorter jumpers. Has no effect on SWR now. Can’t thank yall enough for the help and kind words. 73’s cheers!!

    Jumper length.

    Got my chokes built and installed. 1.1 on ch1 1.25 ch40. Tuned it about 10 ft off the ground. Before the chokes just raising it to the 40ft height would make a huge difference in SWR. Now it’s the same at any height. I haven’t tried the shorter jumpers yet but I suspect it will be fine now...

    Jumper length.

    2 Quick question for the group. 1: Is there a way to check for unwanted RF on a coax shield? 2: Will placing clip on ferrite beads at the meter show a response on the SWR meter if there is?

    Jumper length.

    Awesome. Thanks Michael. I have a local giga parts not too far from where I work . Going to head over there after work tomorrow and pick up 213. Still have to figure out a power supply for my main amp. Working 6 10 he shifts leaves little time to experiment. But I’ll update results when I can.

    Anyone have a 3D printer program to print a core for an ugly balun? I have a close friend that can print a couple.

    Looks great. Thanks.

    Horizontal is lower. 1.5 vertical 1.8 .

    Jumper length.

    All things out of the equation. If you seen SWR change with coax length in your shack. What would be your first thought to check? And try?Again thanks for your input.

    Its a little better at 2 watt, with radio only.

    Jumper length.

    Antenna coax inside shack. I have 3 barrel so connectors mounted through a 2” piece of angle aluminum. I plug into those to choose all directional, vertical or horizontal. Budget alternative to a high power antenna switch. Use a jumper between meter and antenna chosen. Jumper between main amp...

    Jumper length.

    With this antenna I can’t get a reasonable SWR reading. And different length of coax jumpers change the results. Everyone insist it’s the setup of the antenna itself. It has all original elements and matching stubs. If coax length isn’t the root cause then it has to be antenna issues. Moving the...

    Jumper length.

    Yes at least 100 times. :) :) There are multiple pictures in my media of various ways I tried connecting my coax to the stub rods. Nothing helped so I went to back to its original termination. If you want to look at them. will 5 mix 31 beads at the feed point work? if not I think I have some...

    Toroid or bead ferrite which to use?

    Which works better at preventing common mode currents on outside of coax? Ferrite beads or wound toroid?

    Image 8411 doesn’t match the factory drawing. But has been corrected it’s an old picture. But results remained the same either way.
