Subject: 40m Relay Box
Author: Richard Thorne <rthorne@tcac.net>

Has anyone installed the 40m relay box on their 2 element 40m yagi
lately.

Just installed mine and the swr is not even close, its infinity across
the band. I don't have a swr analyzer, so I can't determine where its
now reasonating.

Before installing the relay box, the antenna was resonant at 7.240.
With the coils in or out of the circuit, the swr is still lousy.

I'm sure I should have installed the relay box and then tuned the driven
element.

Anyways, any ideas?
