Can you email Arie Voors? I would ask him about this matching issue. At worst he can say he can't mentor his product, like Roy does. I would like to know the answer to this question, because it may nix my desire to learn how to match.




I have a V58 model on my old computer, but I haven't transferred all my files yet, so it is not available. I could not figure out how to isolate the radiator inside the base mounting tube or add a capacitor. My V58 model with the matcher is not a good model.




If you think that will make a difference, then try making a coil with the same diameter you need to match the end of the trombone tuner, and then remove all the wires you don't need leaving an arch. Then move the wires and attach. That is the way I might try that.




It may sound easy to you my friend.(y)


Have you modeled a Penetrator 500? If so, did you create the High Gain raised radial  mounting bracket for the antenna model? I see this design showing a very good gain, but the pattern is skewed somewhat, and I'm not sure the gain or this model are accurate. It does however support what I've heard from folks for years however...this was the best of the best. But another old saying is, if it is too good to be true...then it is probably not so good...or something like that.


BTW, I just model a Antenna Specialists Super Magnum antenna, and it too is showing remarkable results with the old HG mounting bracket included in the model. However, I see a terrible match with this one and maybe that adds to the effect of higher gain that I see...just not sure.
