[Ares-races] Re DXCC at EOC

[kd5czm1@iwon.com]

We have an 80-10m DXCC in sloper configuration with the low end up about 70 feet off the ground above the courthouse.  We cleaned up the corrosion, tightened all connections and put an antenna analyzer to it.  

We got the following values:

MHz
3.59MHz SWR 1.2
3.75MHz SWR 7.3 very high
3.873MHz SWR 11.1 
7.05MHz SWR 1.3
7.15MHz SWR 1.8
14.175 MHz SWR 1.3
28.390 MHz SWR 1.3
28.500 MHz SWR 1.1

Everything physically, mechanically, checks out. The Alpha Delta hardware is solid.  We think it may have to do with the coils for the 80m legs of the dipole, though they look ok.  Where do we go from here? Your help appreciated.
