I would be interested in what you come up with Herb for the C3S. I was
thinking
about the same thing. I am learning EZNEC but have a long way to go to tackle
this design. It's way above my pay grade. hihi
I use the C3S on 24 and 18 with a tuner. It works but not very well on these
bands.
Not suprising, it isn't really designed for these bands.
