For your info, attached are three pictures showing wind damage to a friends SteppIR antenna in Europe. He said the wind peak was 73 MPH and stayed between 60-70 MPH for three hours. Fortunately he lo

K4MQG further reported: If this is an older SteppIR & therefore came with the original tubes, something to remember... Apparently the dielectric constant of later tubes is different than previous one

Have you tried the re-calibration routine to re-set the element lengths? I changed tubes and also upgraded my controller 6 months ago. I apparently had one of the first Steppir versions. You can alte

K3MH suggested about SteppIR tubes & lengths: Calibrate just runs the motor(s) long enough that the strips can be assumed to be fully retracted & therefore extended from a known state to a known leng

Yes, I was referring to customizing the lengths of the driver based on SWR and using a built in fine and gross tuning routine and not on the homing routine, which is easy to do. I don't have that han

K3MH continued: I can't recall the exact shifts reported for which bands, but changing the reflector of a 3-el model on 20m at 15m by 1.5% (I think it was in that neighborhood), the F/B changes more
