- The topic is a Murch Transmatch 2000. It is in 'better' condition with no signs of internal arcing, etc. The background: I am tuning a long wire, about 100 feet long. I tune with either a 0 dbm gener

- One possibility is that a large amount of RF on the 'grounded' side of the tuner is upsetting the SWR measurement. You say it worked before -- have there been changes in the path from the tuner to gr

- Vic, Thanks for the comments. Last one first, the signal is clean, pick up in a spectrum analyzer shows the spurs are well below 40 db down. Is there an rf conducting grease that should be used on th

- If the chassis of the tuner is hot with RF, there can be a power-dependent error in SWR measurements. I wouldn't expect a 'jump', though, this would be a smooth increase. Also, depending on the diode

- A very strong possibility is that a coax shield connection has opened up somewhere, so you suddenly have RF currents crawling all over your system. Quite likely the tuner is only showing the symptoms
