Mauri, Some years ago I feed a 100 foot tower (with 20 meter 4 element
monobander) by running the feed wire inside the tower. (From the rotor plate to
ground as I was in to much of a hurry to mount offset insulators.) This was fed
like any shunt with a series capacitor and the wire taped for best match. To my
amazement this worked well. Have you ever looked at this combination or can you
analyze its performance?
Ciao,
Herb, KV4FZ
