I am thrilled to report that I have my R&Rd BC 610 E putting out lots of RF (about 370 watts) into a 50 ohm Cantenna dummy load.
I am experiencing some slight "spitting" and arcing at built in antenna relay. I speculate that that spitting is due to inadequate loading or RF transfer from the final tank coil to the dummy load. I am feeding the dummy load directly through coax connected to the two feed through insulators on the output. I would appreciate recommendations regarding a "loading" device to help transfer RF from the tank coil to the antenna. Will installing a C2 from output to ground tune the reactance out of the feed line and facilitate loading the dummy load better or loading the Coax feedline to the antenna?? I would appreciate the benefit of your "actual experience or knowledge" to assist me in interfacing this BC 610 E to a feedline. Thanks and 73, John, K5PGW ____________________________________________________________________________________ Never miss a thing.
