I had a set back with the RX-4.
I tuned the sense antenna several months ago, and it was great! I had
sense from 10m to 800m.
Saturday, I got it out for a demo event, and the sense didn't work *at
all*. No perceptible difference between front and back.
I've had it in the car for 3 or 4 trips to local ARDFs, so it has been
exposed to some vibration. I wonder if it's got a slug that's not
tight enough to hold its position? I remember it being pretty easy to
turn.
Should I try some wax or Q-dope or something to lock it in place after
I tune it again?
