Thanks to all who were involved in the repairs to the antenna
system. A few minor tidy-up tasks are still to be completed plus
installation of the new additional feeder for a low band HF antenna.

VSWR checks were as follows:-

20m  1.3:1
15m  2.5:1
10m  1.6:1
2m   1.8:1
70cm 2.0:1

Please use low power only on the 2m and 70cm bands and Rx only (no
Tx) on the 15m band until the high vswr problems can be resolved.

Feeder, antenna and connectors to be checked on V/UHF; 15m antenna
elements/traps to be checked on HF antenna.
