Hi Folks,

I've installed the Hy-gain antenna on a 60' self-supporting crank-up.  The SWR curves are good and within the bands; 40m is flat at 7.255 MHz, 20m is flat at 14.200 MHz, 15m is flat at 21.300 MHz, 10m is at 28.400 MHz.

I'd like to tweak the antenna a bit to optimize it for my favorite portion of each band.  Hy-gain does not provide any instructions regarding tuning the antenna.  Has anyone tried tweaking this beam?  

73,
Dave
