Two (2) dir elements were added and the boom streched to 8' 9" + 2" = 8ft 11". The AO analysis shows; 10.7 db F/G 8.1 db F/B 300 ohm feed impedance- swr due to match; 302 - j 8 SWR = 1.03:1 To receive the FM station from Portland, OR @ 89.1Mhz - KMHD FM The antenna has a 300 to 75 stripline transformer built into the feed point making the transmission line (RG-6) a better way to send the signal to my FM tuner. Add three (3) ferrite line chokes (apx 1100 ohms) at the feed point to further attenuate the common mode signal. Where N7BB lives F/G is more important than F/B ratio b/c of distance to KMHD's xmitter site . . . 111 miles. Need all the F/G that he can get!
