Roelof and group,

I was using an ft-817 with the miniwhip and was quite amazed that
the LF TX could be heard at 20km.  I will try the attenuator between the
rig and the miniwhip next time to see if the intermod is from the RX.
Thanks fort the suggestion.

The ft817 is very deaf below 0.5 MHz because of the small inductive
reactances in the front end and mixer xfmr I believe, but modifying
it would be awkward because of its size.

The FT-817 works very well on 136kHz with one of G0MRF's preamps.
