Tnx for all the responses to my shunt feed questions for our club. We'll be
attempting to use a similiar version of the K6SE(ex. W5RTQ) shunt feed from
the the ARRL Antenna handbook. BTW, special thanks to Earl and Chris, VE3FU.
Now, for my own chincy tower---
Am I wasting my time trying to shunt feed 4 sections of Rohn 25 with a TH3
at 42'? Would I be better off in the small lot with an inverted L or stick
with my 80 meter horiz. loop with the ladder line shunted for 160 use (which
doesnt hear DX very well) and put lots of raials underneath it?

BTW, the  TOPBAND archives were very useful- I highly recommend checking
there for ideas-
