Have you read Phil Salas' article on base loading for this antenna on his website? http://www.ad5x.com/images/Articles/Match160.pdf

I am aware of the issues with this antenna on 80/160.  I was curious if
adding a wire T to the top would improve the performance on these two
bands.  I am unclear what the length of the T would be or what effect
the T would have on the 30/40.  I am not concerned so much with 10m-20m
as we will have other antennas for those bands.
