Hi Steve
You will enjoy using the T1.
It works best if not feed an endfed half wave.
Just how long are your wire antennas?

Here I use mine to feed my top loaded vertical on
160m.  It also works nicely loading the same
vertical as a nearly halfwave top loaded vertical
on 80m.

I operate it remotely at the base of the vertical,
using a relay to provide the TUNE closure.

Good luck and 73
