Thank you Dave,
I tested with a swr-bridge today and found the same result.
There are no guy wires or antenna wires around, but there is
a hygain 204BA 36feet above, 90° off direction.
Before I put up the KLM-beam I checked the 204BA with
SWR 1.01 at 14.160 which moved now to 14.150.
Unfortunately it was a bit windy today, so I will do more test
hopefully on the weekend
