A3S cushcraft antenna

Post by WB8JBG »

I had to take my triband down because one of the outside elements fell off. I am now trying to tune the antenna. I have a 1.3 to 1 on 20mtrs and 1 to 1 on 10mtrs, but a 3 to 1 on 15. Since the driven element is the only element that has a 15 meter trap on it, and the antenna will provide an acceptable SWR on 20 meters there can't be anything wrong with the traps. The antenna is about 6 ft off the ground the same as it aws when I tuned it and put it up the just after I bought it about 3 years ago. Any suggesting would be appreciated. TNX. WB8JBG.
