[450] 10 meter mobile installation.

[William Knapp / KC1WJ]

I tried a few different "known good" jumpers. The antenna is brand  
new. You'd think the feedline would be okay. Bob came over last  
week-end with his antenna analyzer, but we just ended up sitting out  
on the deck shootin' the shit.
Priorities, priorities.
