When I put my antenna wire together with my 49:1 transformer I will place a small coil at the 72" distance from the transformer. It will be 5 wraps of 14 awg wire on a 3/4" pvc nipple. This is also to assist in bringing SWR on the higher bands down. Then at the mid point of the entire wire length from the transformer out I will place a capacitor to bring the resonance into the upper 80m band (75m?) Because I am a General and use phone. See the attached graphic.
