Default Re: Bush VHF61 - magic eye not closing.

I managed to get to B&Q yesterday and bought the necessary parts to make an end fed dipole aerial. I haven't attempted to fit it outside yet, at the moment it is stood upright by the window.

I've checked the voltages again and there is a small improvement, not enough though to make the tuning indicator work.

The grid voltage has increased from 0.5mv to 2.1mv when tuned to a station.

The cathode voltage has increased slightly from 4.8v to 5.0v when tuned.

Phil.
