Lessons Learned • Shorted lighting arrestors may not be seen with a Antenna Analyzer. • Shorted cables near the antenna may pass RF at a reduced level with a DC short indication. • Shorted cables near the antenna end may show higher than normal SWR at VHF and UHF frequencies. • Water in the coax makes strange humps and bumps in TDR scope (Condition discovered by NX3SS at the EOC).
