[Elecraft] K1 and ATU problem
When I connected a random wire antenna and counterpoise to my K1 using a Male BNC to dual binding posts the ATU would not bring the SWR down. It showed r9.9. I tried different lengths of wire without results. The ATU works fine with coax and a vertical. Any suggestions will be appreciated.
