4.
If a SWR of
1:1
is not achieved, the
INDUCTOR
control should be increased or decreased
and
Step
3
repeated. If arcing should occur between capacitor plates, the
INDUCTOR
control should be increased or decreased by one position, and
Step
3
repeated. If SWR of
1:1
cannot be achieved,
Step
3
should be repeated for each
INDUCTOR
control position.
5.
After a minimum SWR is achieved, transmitter power may be increased to 300 Watts.
The
VERSA TUNER II
will reduce the SWR of most feed systems to
1:1
. In some cases,
a
1:1
SWR is not achievable. In such cases, the length of the antenna may be increased
or decreased to improve SWR.
6.
SWR of
1:1
may occur at more than one set of control settings on the
MFJ-941E
. When
an SWR of
1:1
is obtained, make sure that the transmitter power is relatively high. If
transmitter power has decreased substantially, try another
INDUCTOR
control setting and
repeat
Step
3
.
In Case Of Difficulty:
If this tuner
fails to tune,
please
double check all connections
and follow the tuning procedures again. Be sure you
are using
enough inductance
(
lowest letter usable for band
) and have the
capacitors open far enough
(
highest front
panel number
).
If this tuner
arcs
at the rated power levels, please
double check all connections
and follow the tuning procedures
again. Be sure you are using the
least amount of inductance
and the
greatest capacitance
possible to match the
load on the operating frequency. If you are still unsuccessful, please read the
Antenna
Matching Problems
text below.
Note
:
If this tuner
arcs
when operating on the
160 meter
band, it may be necessary to
reduce
transmitter output power
.
Antenna Matching Problems:
Most matching problems occur when the antenna system presents an
extremely high impedance to the tuner
. When the
antenna impedance is much
lower
than the feedline impedance, an
odd quarter-wavelength
feedline converts the low
antenna impedance to a
very high impedance at the tuner
. A similar problem occurs if the antenna has an extremely
high impedance and the transmission line is a multiple of a half-wavelength. The half-wavelength line
repeats
the very
high antenna impedance at the tuner.
Incorrect feedline and antenna lengths can make an antenna system very
difficult or
impossible
to tune.
