Hi Gang,

Was messing with my SLT a little today and found the cause of
the REV meter movement when putting RF into the dummy load.
It's probably been in a previous post, but since I've not seen
much on the SLT lately, thought I'd put it up.

The ground side of the 50 ohm load must have a direct connection
to the chassis ground. On top of the board, I soldered a wire
across the four leads of the four resistors (ground side) and then
curled the end of that wire under the mounting post screw on the
corner of the circuit board. The bottom of the post must also be
fastened to the chassis floor with a second screw.

Now, no more REV meter movement when on the dummy.

73,

Harry, KM3D
