Hmm.. 
It may be that mine is broken then. Wouldn't surprise me a great deal.
Something interesting is going on in the bottom section of that thing, 
because when we had no screws in the section couplers (previous 
administration) we had still no significant reflected power, but lots 
of popping and cracking, and worse sensitivity.


I have another similar antenna here, that just came down from the local 
club's 440 machine, I may try it up there and see what happens. 
Coverage on either band isn't what I would have expected, in either 
direction, but measurements at the bottom of the feedline seem to 
indicate that it should be performing decently.
