Hello:

I'm in the process of installing a Hy-gain Hy-tower (MFJ Version).  I've
purchased the MK-160A inverted L kit and am wondering if there are any tips
or mods out there to make this antenna perform better on 160M (or 80M).

The other question I have is that the MK-160A connects at the 24 foot level.
Does this mean the vertical element above this point does not radiate at
160M?  Or does this make the antenna a "sideways T".

Any tips or comments appreciated!
