Hi Jim:

It's an easy mistake, and maybe one you fell victim to:  Did you
check the PHASE of all three antennas to make sure they were the
same?  By that I mean that the coax center and shield were connected
on the same side of the driven element on all three antennas?

If they were not, you would have a "worthless" stack.  K1VR went
through this a few years ago with predictable results.
