Hello all.I have a t antenna.50ft vertical and roughly 300 ft ntip to tip horizontal.I get a nice drop and resonance at abt 3.8 mhz.Is this weird resonant point normal??I would think it would be lower.I have another at abt 2.2 but almost a 3-1 swr..Normal ? I have used an inverted l before and resonant was abt right with a 1/4 wave length..thanks..john

NEC shows resonance around 3.4 MHz, and no other resonance around 2.2.


So I'd guess you've got something else going on, perhaps feedline is participating.
