Hey Al, Just spotted this as I was combing through.

Nice set up Mate

is TVI coming from Antenna or Coax as it looks quite high?

Whats the other rig with your RCI?

Cheers TC

Its my old Lincoln, just sold it. Dont know where tvi is coming from Tony but I am now going to get all new coax and put aerial up a bit higher and try that, if that fails I guess I`ll just go mobile.

Ye Al, as I keep saying trial and error!!!! just a question, Do you have a Low Pass Filter in line (some say they work, some say they dont) but its good practice to have one in line???

mine stops TVI on G5RV but not on V in loft??!!

hope this helps?

Yes I have one, it made no difference at all. When I get the new coax and raise the pole up I will put an earth on and try that, just hope it works. I will be up the hills tomorow, I hope anyway, something always seems to stop me though-work usually!
