I use a grip plier with  some 2 feet small plastic tube taped to it and a 
wire going
down.
At the bottom i use a 500 pf old radio capacitor to tune the shuntfed with 
my analyzer.  It easy to
readjust the connectionpoint at the tower. When you find that point than you 
can start to build
the gammamatch.
