[450] Burn baby burn!

[William Knapp / WA1WK]

Attached are some photos of my burned up roller inductor inside my MFJ  
tuner. Whoever thought it was a good idea to wind an inductor that can  
get pretty hot onto a plastic PVC form....well. I will refrain from  
comment.

Anyway, here's the ugliness and my ugly repairs (that amazingly work).  
The only bands I can't tune up on now are 17m and 15m. Everything else  
works, including six.

Get ready for some photos of destruction!
