Pete ,
put the taparound 60feet.See what happening.Now I have the 40cd on top off
the tower (28m)At 25m I have a kt34xa.
I started the tap at 9m and did get no resonance.I moved  the tap at 18m and
the shunt wire is about
0.5m from the tower.The cap is now around 200pf(vacuum variable).That's
worked for me.I study a bit
in the on4un book secttion "Shuntfeed towers".i'm using about 150 radials
around the tower in lengts
of 20 to 50m.
If you want to go lower with the tap you have to move it far away from the
tower and use more C.
Now we need propagation,and hope that the corn fields are empty for the
beverages

Good luck
Now busy with my 80m wire vertical and 2 elevated radials.
73/dx on4ma
