[TowerTalk] Any 17/12-Meter Vertical Antenna available?

[larryjspammenot@teleport.com]

Yes, I'm interested a vertical only. No tower here at this QTH - if I had one, I'd put my old 6-band quad back up.

I have a Butternut HF-6V that I've added the 17 and 12-Meter kits to, but they just don't tune properly - this is a well-documented problem with this antenna.

I also know of the Cushcraft WARC-bands 30/17/12M rotatable dipole, but I do already have good 30-Meter performance with the Butternut vertical. Maybe someone has modified a 12AVQ or a similar multiband vertical antenna into something that covers just 17 and 12-Meters? I'd like to have a separate vertical antenna for just those two bands.
