I have an ATX Walkabout antenna but having a hard time
tuning to a low swr. I have it connected to the rear

attached to the radio. It seems very sensitive to
tuning and I am wondering what other have done for
easy tuning to low swr and maximum output with the
817?

Doug,
Like you my ATX walkabout doesn't like being connected to the rear SO-
239, it however tunes up great on the front bnc connector. I don't
know why but I am suspecting the Pl-259 elbow connectors, maybe...
