Mike,
I am talking about measuring the internal wiring INSIDE the FT-100D. To
do that you must tap in the TX feedline after the amplifier stage and then
put a 50 ohm load on the output connector. Of course I am guessing all this
without seeing or having any experience with the Yaesu radio! The SWR
circuit could be flakey as well.

Poke and prod to find what is making the SWR bad. An antenna analyzer

I believe he indicated that he'd A/B'd this rig against another rig on
the same feedline and antenna with no problems so that should
eliminate any further investigation of the feedline and antenna as a
culprit.
