Re: QMX High swr into 50 ohm dummy load
Mike, the fact that your "after" SWR gets worse at lower frequency suggest to me that something probably broke or made an unwanted connection in the process.

I have continuity between the left A, B, C, and pin 7 as noted in the instructions. The right A, B, and C, share some continuity with the left. Is this correct? I expected these would be independent.
