The trouble may be in the feed system-- the coax, etc. With an antenna of
that general type (ie, a Yagi) I would always check it first down at a
workable level. Using the assembly I intend to use on and in the air.
I would check it about head high ( the reflector), pointing straight up.
This will check for any obvious faults, at a level requiring no tower
climbing.
You say the traps are OK-- how do you know?
Good luck- Bill-W4BSG
