| Well regarding the bonding of the coax shield at the top and bottom of the 
tower… I’m having a hard time understanding this.  If the shield of the coax is 
connected to the top of the tower(or at the point on the tower where the 
antenna is mounted), one side of the dipole then is connected to the tower at 
that point. I would think that would disturb the radiation pattern, the match, 
and anything else that can be disturbed (including me) !
