   have you tried shortning up the longer rods? with them at long and 27mhz
   try shorten them a tad to reach 28mhz. you had the hats all the way down
   and hit 33mhz. you moved them up to far got 27 try move them back down a
   little bit
   you mite be able to reach 28mhz that way as-well
   just an idea to throw out there…

   think about what you’re doing adding to the cap hat only adds to resonance,
   it doesnt a another band you need to change the coil winding in order to do
   that, experiment with coil windings, thats where you’ll get your answers

   This is interesting Dave. It look as if you could make a mono band antenna.
   I’m thinking that it wouldn’t work if you changed capictance hat’s lengths.
   My computer keeps buffering on this video. One half of this antenna might
   make a mobile HF antenna. Have you ever thought of making a mobile antenna?
