swr was infinite, what I should have said is that its really really high, :-). When the relay box is installed in series with the feed line, several inches of wire is placed in the circuit. The ORIGINAL hair pin was moved to the feed line side of the relay, which I believe electrically lengthened the hair pin coil. I found in the packaging an extra coil which is much smaller than the original hair pin coil. I'm guessing that I need to swap the original hair pin with the smaller hair pin that came with the relay box. I should have figured this out sooner, but it wasn't mentioned in the documentation. I'll swap the coils out tomorrow and report back. -- 73, Richard Thorne Amarillo, TX Amateur Radio Station - N5ZC (Ex.
