Well, the 10m feed for my 6m dipole works, but when the loading coil warms up (it's warm to the touch), the resonant frequency shifts down, which means I need to compensate for that by trimming the hats a bit more. :3

I'm definitely going to need a different antenna for 20m, most likely a magloop.

Managed to track down 10 AWG magnet wire, so I'll wind a new loading coil on a new T200-2 toroid. Hopefully it won't heat up as much.

It's funny because both flux and capacitance are involved. :P
