I tried putting one up this weekend. Could not get a decent SWR
anywhere. I tried adding length and subtracting length. Tried moving
the point where it attaches to the tower from 70 feet to 78 feet. I did
not try to move is lower. I tried changing the angle as well.
Tower is 78 feet tall with a 40-2cd at 90 feet and a C3 at 80 feet.
I started out with a 130 foot sloper.
Anyone have any suggestions?
