well i flashed the bios on my old laptop and got it ti take windows xp and the minivna software,
it works great but the screen dont refresh nearly as fast as my clocked amd tower,

i cant take the i-10k down on my own untill i cut half the 2 apple trees down so i just played with the trombone sections for a good houre before the old battery in the lapi went flat,

i managed to get x=almost zero and 1.05:1 vswr on the same frequency according to the analyser,
just my luck it was below 27mhz,
at the low height its mounted at now the antenna needs shortening,

im pretty sure i can get resonance and vswr min at near enough the same frequency once i make a bit of clearance to lay it down and shorten the radiator
