Thanks to everyone for the help/tips/theory on my 40m & up
antenna project. It's working fb now.

Note: the 1.6:1 minimum SWR I was seeing went away after
the sun dried off the roof and feedline. Now I get a 1.1:1 or
better match. Still can't get a decent match on 12m. On 10m
my autotuner (Elecraft KAT2 internal) has to work hard to get
a match. It's not my only antenna for the upper bands so I'm
not too concerned.

Ken
