Topband: Need Info Re Tower Detuning

Peter,

This sounds simple enough, but please tell us more .....

- Why was 60' chosen as the shunt arm point ?
- How far is the shunt arm separated from the tower ?  Is there anything
critical about this distance ?
- Is the LC network parallel or series tuned ?  Approximate component
values?  - When you were done, what frequency was it resonant at ?
- From a theoretical point-of-view, how does having no current flowing in
the shunt arm imply that the tower is detuned ?

Thanks,
Steve, N2IC/0
