That's probably gonna work out real well for ya, seeing as how 120' is a half-wave on 75m (3.9Mc)


It usually does.  But due to the high impdeance, it's one of the things that
drive me to a roller inductor tuner.  I just wish it was up higher.

You'll like the Viking II, then... the roller inductor in it will allow you to match from around 30 to 250ohms.

Who cares what the SWR is on the feedline. a 1/2wave into the rig will be fine. Load the thing up and see how it does, once you get the plate cap for the other 6146 (you could always take the one off of the Scout, for the time being, seeing as how you'll have a replacement in the mail, soon).
