Kind folk,
Wound a coil and put it between the base of the
antenna and ground. Little bit of tap selection
caused the
indicated VSWR to be essentially flat on 10. Got
curious and tried adding a 20 meter resonator to the
top of the mast along with the 10 meter resonator.
To make a short story even shorter, was able to find
a common tap for both which provided 1.2-1.3:1 over
the 10 meter area of interest and 1.3:1 over about
30 kHz of 20 meters. A litte bit of resonator
tweaking was required.
Again, thanks to all who assisted.
73,
Tim
