Dave, I love your videos. Send them to new hams all the time. It is sincerely so great that someone is actually taking the "lived experience" and collating it neatly online-- not everyone has an expert locally when they're getting into the hobby. Your channel is going to remain a powerful resource for a long time!!

Ive found that if you tune the end fed to the bottom of 80 meters; you get a better match on the higher bands. Due to the "end effect" if you were to put your lowest SWR at the top of 80 meters, your harmonics will fall outside of the ham bands
