I had a problem with bandwidth on mine and they (the old company) charged me $40 for an
"improvement". It was new element ends for the 15 mtr driver and new deed line, there recommendation
was to dress the two feed wires close together. I have pictures of the feed line. It helped some.

Many years ago I removed the outside/end piece of tubing on the 15M driven
element, which I did by rotating the antenna vertically, once for each side,
to reach it.

Hello,


i installed Force 12 C31XR and SWR on 15m is bad.
Resonante freq is beleow the band. It is possible to
operate CW, but SSB SWR is to high!
Antenna is on the top of 30m high tower and 
there is no other antenna or wires on the tower. 
Does anyone know how to slove problem with bad SWR on 15m?
