What kind of SWR did you get on frequencies not in your table? I would
expect to see some 10:1 and 30:1 type numbers.

The antenna resonates as follows:
============
2.130 2:1 swr
2.715 1:1 swr (flat)
3.620 2:1 swr
============
8.970 2:1 swr
9.210 1.8:1 swr
9.390 2:1 swr
============
12.230 2:1 swr
13.040 1.9:1 swr
13.850 2:1 swr
============
15.930 2:1 swr
============
20.970 2:1 swr
22.745 1.2:1 swr
24.520 2:1 swr
============

If I figure 468/133.1666666667 I get 3.514.393 mhz
for resonance How come the antenna is so far off?
Could it be the height? Not that I'm complaining - I
like the low resonance and my Z11 autotuner will take
this antenna down to 1.8 mhz real easy. Although at
that freq I expect the antenna will radiate a NVIS
signal due to low HAAT.

Any ideas???
