In my opinion any old telrex should be run through an optimizer before being
put back up on a tower.  I tested and retuned 3,4,and 6 ele 20m, 8ele 15m,
and a big 10m one... they all needed major retuning, the 10m one was a
better 11m antenna than 10m.  when the 6 element 20m was optimized one whole
element was virtually worthless, on the 8 ele 15m the optimizer removed 3
elements to make it better!
