[TowerTalk] Resonant freqs for KT-34XA?

[Robert Katz]

Does anybody have resonance measurements for each element of a KLM KT-34XA?

I bought a used one and it doesn't tune up on 15m and 20m.  In 
measuring the resonant frequencies, the front driven element looks 
fine (freqs a bit above the band), but the rear driven element has 
funny looking readings (a bit below on 10m, waaaay below on 15m, and 
in the band on 20m).

I did clean all the connections, and I'm now about to completely 
disassemble the elements to check the capacitor tubes (I was too lazy 
the first time - silly me).  I don't think I have the wrong thickness 
capacitor tubing since one element looks OK, but I'm going to get my 
hands on some calipers to double check.  So I'm looking for the 
resonant frequencies to know what kind of frequencies I'm shooting 
for.  Any other ideas?

Thanks in advance, and happy new year.
