Hi,

My last few posts to the Topband reflector appear to run into a 
'filter' so I no longer post there. 

I'm having an issue with my inverted-L on 160, arcing and melting. 
The location appears to be fairly consistent at around 137' The total 
antenna length is 161'8" with series capacitence at the feedpoint. Is 
there any freely available or inexpensive modeling software that 
someone might direct me to, help me figure out what's going on?

Thanks,

Gary
