Re: Bird Termaline load repair
Why focus on the ROS which hides an important parameter which is the reactif. Measure and show us the S11 with a nanaoVNA from 0 to 1 GHz. The variation on the Smith will tell you more than the SWR

Re: AL-82 For Sale
Never heard of a problem with the band switch....there are 9 people, in a group of u, that chat every morning on 75 and they/we all have 82's. This a new 'issue' to me. In any case, never had an issue
