The electrolysis is internal to the tower legs. If you remove a tower bolt, you will find it is no longer cylindrical in shape, but may even look 'coke-bottle' shaped from degredation. On my Universa

Each time zone is 15 degrees wide [15 zones x24 hours =360 degrees] If some one lives at the 'edge' of one of those time zones, they can be 7.5 [or more] degrees off the time zone meridian. Therefore

Where did you make those measurements? If at the shack end of the coax, they are quite meaningless as to antenna resonance. The only way to get the correct measurements is AT THE ANTENNA. Sorry, but

When measuring the 'resonance' of an antenna at the shack, you are NOT measuring the antenna's resonance .. you are measuring the resonance of the antenna and feedline. Remember .. the feedline SHOUL
