I can not get the reson. freq. in the band..for example..everything is low
in frequency:

10 Meters center freq. 27.262 MHz.
15 Meters " " 20.895 MHz.
20 Meters " " 14.653 MHz.

The Vertical is ground mounted with radials.....,manufact. spacing cannot
be
adjusted any further...I used a mfj ant. analyzes. to measure the reson.
freq,..anyone else had this problem..if so, how did you fix it...any
suggestions would be most appreciated...tnx.....Gary..K8BY

Gary -

According to the data you provided:

10 and 15 meters -- length is "too long"

20 meters - length is "too short"

[Remember that physical length and electrical length are different values
with this antenna -- because of the usage of traps]

I would suggest reading K5RWK's column in "The Chawed Rag" newsletter
on installing the Hustler 6BTV vertical

Here is that web link:
