13-foot elements?
Sounds just a bit .. well .. a lot more than a bit .. SHORT !
With elements that short, you'd fine it won't have much bandwidth 
..maybe 10 kHz ?? .. and the feedpoint impedance would be TOUCHY .. very!
If you use 13-foot HALF-elements, you'll improve the bandwidth AND the 
feedpoint impedance.
