Extensive frequency coverage is no longer a problem with my unit. I have
adapted a newly developed screw driver like antenna to the sna connector.
Integration between the screw driver and swr bridge metering circuit
required a small modification to the firmware.
I have contacted Yaesu and I am ready to transfer the patent to their
corporation. In turn they have agreed to retrofit those units already in
the field. New models will come with this as standard equipment.
The drive mechanism is so fast that it keeps pace with the unit as it scans,
even across band boundaries.
More information will be available soon, as I am low on meds at this
writing.
