Now that I have the resonant frequency of 2.278 MHz for my 68' tower. What should the design frequency be for 160 Meters? I have plugged 1.8 and 1.9 MHz into the formula for computing electrical leng

I don't know much about shunt feeding towers, but more top loading is an efficient way to go. Sounds like you wouldn't need a whole ton of it to get down to resonance on 160, but I guess you already

Just thinking about this question says one of three answers might work here: network for each frequency of interest. The usual shunt feed matching network will likely provide much of the matching cap

John, it is not necessary for the tower to be resonant to make an efficient radiator. Probably 99% of all ham tower verticals are not. You can get a 50 ohm match with an omega match at the base. You
