[TowerTalk] HyTower decoupling stub question

[Bill Winkis]

Mounted my 17 meter stub on the same leg as the 40 meter...no 
problem, except tuning was tricky, has to move the stud a little 
closer to the tower to get the  standing wave where I wanted it...
Look at the pix of the tower and look at the left side and you'll see 
the assembly...17/40...
