| + | |||
| + | ===== Antennas / Tuners ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | ==== Centre-fed ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | * Relocated the Ranger tuner to under the balcony; | ||
| + | * Couple ladder-line to the tuner using the existing balun (replace PL259 with ring terminals); | ||
| + | * Replace coax feeder with single piece of RG213; | ||
| + | * Provide power connection for tuner; | ||
| + | * Improve earth connection for tuner (possibly not necessary given its feeding a balanced antenna); | ||
| + | * Connect antenna to Antenna Socket 1 on IC-7400. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ==== 20m Dipole ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | * Replace coax feeder (RG213 from radio to outside, RG400 in air up to antenna); | ||
| + | * Connect antenna to Antenna Socket 2 on IC-7400. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ==== End-fed ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | * Replace Ranger tuner with ugly balun (RG400 looped through ferrite ring); | ||
| + | * Connect shield side of balun to roof; | ||
| + | * Replace coax feeder with single piece of RG213 (kept as short as possible); | ||
| + | * Connect antenna to LDG AT-7000 automatic tuner; | ||
| + | * Connect tuner to IC-718. | ||
