Hi chaps

At least this makes a change from QRL ? !

My 34XA at last is playing on 10 and 20m. I rechecked all the 
dimensions and now all seems well.

However the two points of resonance on 21 are at 20.850 and at 21.200.
They should be about 150 KHz higher and NOTHING I seem able to do 
shifts them. 

If I play with the reflector as per the KLM instruction manual even 
with the most severe changes the dips only move upwards 20 KHz or so.

If I play with the driven elements by shortening the 15m loading 
section everything gets much worse !!

This fine antenna seems to get out very well on the lower end of 15m
but I just dont like to use it on phone as the SWR is higher than 3 to 
1 above 21300.

HELP !!!!!!!!

Any Lubbock WTX contester's on the reflecter?  I'm in town for a week
(now) attending a workshop and would like to get together with someone
to compare notes.  Please leave a note for me (direct to 
ieefc at msu.oscs.montana.edu) or call me at the Days Inn, room 214.
Thanks and 73, Fred KE7X
