Hi Folks,

Well, they are complete, but there seems to be
a problem with the transmit side 'cavities'.

The variable capacitor from the center of the SO-239
to the center conductor gets extremely hot.

I'm running about 70 watts out of the PA, and the
devices that I used are identical to what was shown
in the construction article.

Just wondering if anyone else has built these, and
did you see heating as well.  (the first piston trimmers
I used arc'd right thru)!

Thanks,

Tim  W5FN
