* Contact to Northwest Territory, Canada near Arctic Ocean (furthest North to date) * Still running without ATU * Received the LDG ATU. Performed 1 hr of configuration and testing. Working with tech support on 20 meter tuning, but the LDG is following the Desktop as it loops through the bands and connected to Skyloop. SWRs, except for 20 meters, all well below 2 to 1. Once I have 20 meter issue resolved, then I will put the LDG Z-11 pro ATU into production (single experiment change). Will observe and compare how the reduced SWR impacts confirmed WSPR contact range relative to the higher SWR (no ATU) confirmed WSPR contact range.

Harry....this sub 1 watt adjustable amp could also be a future product line. An antenna matcher for the sub 1 watters could also be a good idea; I ended up buying a LDG Z-11 pro ii because that matcher can tune using 100 milliwatts.

Hi Harry, Sorry I wrote "Henry" in the above comment; that's what happens when I attempt to multitask and instant messaging to a colleague, Harry on Slack, and posting comments here.😁

Day 4 Ordered a lower power antenna tuner (LDG electronics Z-11 pro ii) to better match the skyloop to the Zach midplus. Despite some pretty distant contacts, I have some 2 to 1 up through 5 to 1 SWR readouts. Thinking is that if I can better match the transmitter to skyloop, maybe I will get even further confirmed contacts. Updates to follow.
