Jim,
## I would not run the L4B with oem zero bias either. The resulting idle
current
is way too high. 220-230 ma. You can knock the idle current down to 100
ma,
when on high B+ position, with just 8 x diodes in the CT. Which will also
result in
40 ma when on low B+ position. And nobody will complain about IMD in
either
position.
I am using the "self" cut off bias which gives 100 ma idle current<<
## She now has a 6M monoband amp, with everything optimized for 6m. I
would check the slug
if a bird or CD wattmeter used. Dont trust the drake internal
wattmeter..esp on 6m.
I will check the Bird and the slug. I never trust the internal wattmeter.
