Ok I'll bite, whats wrong with 1:3:1?? This "problem" exist across the
whole 20M band?? Could you expand a bit as to
why this is a problem? Don't "wait up" for a call from Cushcraft, I reallly
would not expect Cushcraft to be able to afford to supply tech support to
the second third or 4th purchaser of an antenna.
