Comments:
Well that was one of the more stupid mistakes. I went to 40 meters and kept
getting beat out, but then managed to work a couple of the loud MN stations.
But was still having trouble winning jump balls or getting answers to CQs. So
made another 20 meter contact. Back to 40 another weird thing was it didn't
seem to make much difference listening which of the 40 meter antennas I was on.
Finally after 6 minutes of this, I realized the main antenna switch for that
radio was still on 15 meters! The SWR on the 15 system just by chance is not
that bad on 40 meters since using coax for stubs and phasing between antennas,
so didn't recognize that by SWR.
