Tony,

Adding more elements seems like the only practical solution. You would
probably have to add 6 -8 feet to the boom, and 2 more elements. Keep in
mind the longest element will be about 38 feet long. That is why they make
the 18 -30 MHz version. BTW, Tennadyne used to make an 18 -30, but I don't
see that listed on their web site any more. You might want to check them out
anyhow for any ideas.

Hi Mac

The lengthening of the boom and the further scaling of larger elements

does
sound like a damn good idea ! Thanks for the ideas,,,,much appreciated.

Cheers and 73's

Dear Tony (VK2TS):
Nice to see a real antenna question from an actual radio amateur...

Extending is what I would do.
