Should I have a eight to ten turn  --six inch diameter--  in line coil of
coax at the base feed point of my HyTower all band vertical???

My coax is buried from  window to base of tower-  about 75 feet.

BTW, the HyTower is a very good antenna, compared to a dipole inverted vee
at 60 feet at center on 160, 75, and 40.  Don't have any dipoles on the
other bands!!!  Works ok on 6meters.
