Gene,

Thanks for posting that.  Sorry this was your experience here.  This is
not a simple build it and go field when dealing with these sort of
circuits where one must be phase and SWR tuned.  What did Dr Tesla say
once something like he did not fail just found 10 thousand ways not to
build it.

There are some issues with your build in that everything should be on
the same plane to prevent unwanted coupling and proper RF design is
paramount.

Awesome you have the inclination to jump in and build things, it's very
exciting to finish a project but sometimes it's the journey that is more
important than the destination.

I would not presuppose anything about Hector having built things
though.  He can be a curmudgeon just like the rest of us older fuckers.

Are you on the west coast?

Mick
