How does the "hat" on a Cushcraft 402-CD work? You have those crossed aluminum rods after the coil, then extended aluminum after that. What happens if you take off the crossed rods? 73, N2TK, Tony --

I am shunt feeding my tower. I use a series vac variable set for 290pf. The cap to ground is set at 380pf. This gives me a resonance at 1.840. At 1.8 and 1.9 the swr is 3:1. What I would like to do i

Well, 160M seems to be working fine with shunt feeding the tower. I like the increase I got in bandwidth by making a multi-wire array parallel to the tower face for the shunt feed instead of just usi

Hi Rune, I found that if I used an insulated wire on the ground between the termination point and the feed point and lifted the connections to the ground rods the performance seems to improve compare
