The problem with the 80/40/20 antenna and the lack of ability to tune the 80 meter segment was a result of a bad IFL. No big surrprise when its nearly 500' between the radio and the antenna.
First I terminated the IFL that runs between the house and each of the 4X1 switches.
Its about 100' to each 4X1 switch. So there was no problem between the house and both switches.
Terminated the 80/40/20 fan dipole IFL at that runs to the top of the hill...
Terminated the 15/10/6/2 IFL that run to the top of the hill ...
NEW RULE...Before using any IFL new or in use terminate and sweep.
