[TowerTalk] Breaking boom resonance

[Steve London]

I have a 34 foot boom supporting an 80 meter wire beam. The elements of 
the wire beam are completely insulated from the boom. 30 feet below that 
boom is a 20 meter beam. Yes, there is definitely interaction.

I am looking at techniques for detuning the boom using the W8JI tower 
detuning method. Anyone want to make a guess at how long the detuning 
section should be, and what value of capacitor would get me in the 
ballpark for resonance at 14 MHz ?
