Have set up a delta loop during weekend, based on available posts and
masts.
 
Delta resonates at 3.150 MHz (is indeed around 95 m in circumference) ,
but want it to resonate at 3.550 MHz . Of course I can cut about 10
meter off, but will give me some mechanical problems. 
 
So is there any electrical way of shortening (add capacitance ) and if
so can it be done in the baseline wire  ? I assume to preserve symmetry,
will need to do it at two ends...
 
Feedpoint is in a corner.
 
Thanks
