Been there, done that, still do it occasionally....
As I seldom have my K2 at full power, I ended up using a 50 ohm
'terminator' on 'Ant2'. It looks like a BNC connector and has a small chain
that you can screw down so you can't loose it. In the old days these were
used to terminate 50 ohm Ethernet networks. I'm not sure about the power
they are supposed to be able to handle, but this particular one has
survived many of my attempts to tune 'Ant2' ....
