Hi guys,

I would welcome some suggestions on how to feed my tower on 1916 kHz and on 
3813 kHz. The tower is a 100 foot Rohn 45 with a 5 band High Gain HT-11
antenna atop. Bottom of tower is grounded and ground system is 16 radials of
copper wire from 100 to 120 foot in length. Tower is guyed at three levels
and guy wires are insulated with egg insulators every 40 feet. Tower is
located 250 
foot from ham shack. I have a run of RG-213 cable and an 8 conductor cable
to control switching of networks at base.
