Since I started the thread I think I should post a follow up on what I
found regarding the NCC-1 phasing network. I apologize for the late
post. The past 24 hours have mostly been spent preparing for and
attending a hamfest.
Firstly the box is working okay; problem solved. The problem was a

I'll add a comment about documentation. I bought a new-in-box NCC-1 from
another ham in late 2009 and had several problems getting it to work
correctly. The root cause was multiple errors in the printed manual and

Martin, its all about reputation and DX-Engineering has the best. Back
in the 80's some periodicals were marketing the MaxCom baluns which

the phasing controls instead of MFJ's tiny knobs. they give full
rotation and a phase reversal switch on either antenna which can be

And actually, I drive a Prius and there are schematics and troubleshooting info

update: I just received an email, perhaps a canned response from DX
Engineering telling me they won't give me a schematic. In addition,
