Those matchers must not be real good. 3 of my runs feed stacks on
10/15/20, each is 4/4/4/4+4south. All combinations come out with
reasonable results and no amp retuning needed on switching... and that
is with the simplest possible home made stack matching system... all
done with just an rcs-8v and a single extra piece of coax.
