Rich:

     Right up my alley!  I have a shunt-fed Trylon T-500-64 that works very well (IMHO.)  I posted a few times here on TT once I had the tower up and shunt wires hung off it.  Check out http://lists.contesting.com/archives//html/Towertalk/2002-01/msg00358.html   and   http://lists.contesting.com/archives//html/Towertalk/2002-03/msg00089.html  .  (Watch out for line-wrapping on these URLs.)  

     I based the design of the shunt-wire cage on Jeff K1ZM's book on Topband DXing.  You might want to track down a copy of his book, too.

     If you need more info or have other questions, please drop me a note.  I'm only too glad to help.
