The original poster mentioned that he was feeding his Delta Loop at the lower
corner. ON4UN suggests in his book "Antennas and Techniques for
Low-Band DX'ing" that a 'better' feed point is 1/4 wave down from the upper
apex.
I haven't tried this yet, but it is on my "to try" list next summer for 80m.
