Matching the earth-electrode antenna in the ground


To allow the auto ATU in the FT-710 to match the earth-electrode antenna on 80m (see the excellent results yesterday) I had to use this transformer.  As you can see, it is not pretty!!  With it, the load presented to the FT-710 was obviously less than 3:1 as it matched well.
