It also prevents those tingles you refer to when someone(yes, perhaps foolishly) comes in contact with that backstay or mast while TXing... And I'm sure you realize that despite what anyones opinion of it might be, that plastic AT-130 is the most common tuner in the fleet these days...and works well enough with an INSULATED backstay and efficient counterpoise.... regards markvictor Looks to "Me" that this fellows MF/HF Marine Radio experience has all been since the invention of the Marine Radio Autotuner. If he had some experience with the old Northern N555 tuners, or any of the RF Harris channelized Tuners, his outlook would certainly be broader. If he had to actually learn to TUNE an open wire antenna thru a channelized tuner as the frequency approched 1/2 Wavelength, his outlook would be different. But hey, I for one, admit that MF/HF Communications in Marine Radio, is on its deathbed, and has very little future in the real world. One can't expect newbies, to learn this Art, just because it used to be the way the world communicated back in the 20th Century. Me |
