Hi Topbanders,

I am building an Inv L for 160m with FCP.

As i can get an isolation transformer i will add a series loading coil 
(about 17uH) to my FCP and then an RF choke.

How can i tune my FCP + Loading coil ??...i need a balance between 
FCP+Loading coil and the Radiator.

Can i build 2 FCP with loading coils and tune like a dipole with my 
MFJ-259???...then remove one of the FCP´s or keep both.

Thoughts ??

73....Douglas, CO8DM
