After a day of work putting together and putting up a DB224E in the 138-150 range I found the thing to be resonate at 150 MHZ center. After a few colorful metaphors, I find I turned one of the elements upside down with the feed at the bottom. Would this be enough to throw the antenna off balance or should I look for problems somewhere else also? I get a 2.0 SWR at 146.000. I don’t mind a second trip up the tower to turn the element around (it’s the lower element), but that third trip would do me in!
