At my age I can't afford to waste time learning
things I should have learned years ago,
so, I call on the list..

Using MFJ  259B
comparing hanging verticals intended to be used as phasing elements
with R25 , 130ft, grounded and dedicated.

#1 dips at 1.866  swr 2.5  ,  ohms 30,  R23  ,  X17

# 2 dips    1.872  swr 2.8     ohms 30   R22,    X18

Does this say something about my radial system? 
I'd like to feel the radial system is reasonable before 
I do the final trimming, inductors, and switching..

Physically these wires look to be in similar environment.
