GM4ESD also suggested this and I am going to try this, since it will 
require the least modification to my existing antenna.  I will build up 
the circuit on my bench and adjust it for the reactance shown by EZNEC 
with my MFJ analyzer.  Then I'll hook it up and make final adjustments 
on the antenna.  It will be interesting to see if the antenna appears to 
perform better.
