Hi TT

I made the  installation of this antenna for a friend, follow all the 
dimensions  and the details
the manual is one of the worst I see , really bad,  
The original manual  of the TA-33 MW do not show use of the ground Strap, the 
KIT just mention one 

time, I miss it and will put it to see if that think is the following  problem 

The antenna is working fine in 10 12 15 17  BUT   20m is  resonating very 
narrow 
at 13 mhz
and 40m  is  resonating at 7.7 mhz
The ground strap in the blue elements made that ? or one trap is broken ?
the antenna is first time installed  after 20 years of purchase

Will appreciate any idea   or  experience with this antenna. kind of problem
Will  try to avoid remove again all the full  antenna  for the problematic and 
heat (around 105 F)m but 

can remove the Blue element to inspect tramps with not big problem
