>> TIL will go into key down mode on 137778.00Hz and will phase shift on the following sked starting at 0100UTC. H, H+15, H+30, H+45<<

ok, all set up for monitoring, including NPG Dixon on the lowest grabber trace. Good luck!

>> As a side note the combined stages are far more stable then a lone stage... The DC input current varies 1/2 as much as a lone stage with antenna variations in the wind... I expect this to improve even further with the 4 port combiner used for the 2KW version.<<

- a very interesting point. Would that imply it is possible to partly absorb load reflections in the combiners? I had always thought that you'd need a nonreciprocal device like a circulator for that purpose - which might be sort of bulky at LF ;-) The reduced effect on current could possibly be due to a different phase of the reflection coefficient.

73, hope to see you before meltdown ;-)
