Good way to "electronically" add some length. But remember the smaller
Hy-Gain? coils use a form of Litz wire. Don't use those, get the KW
type.

Another point, the further along the wire the coil is inserted, up to
a certain point, the greater influence it will have. But NEVER put it
at the very end!
