Using my MFJ-910 33' Telescoping mast, a $1.88 pack of fishing line, and my MFJ-259B Antenna analyzer I show my 40M OCF up around 20'. Using the MFJ-259B I show the OCF at resonance for 40M, 20M, and 2M. The 20M SWR is around 2:1, however with my antenna tuner I was able to bring this down to ~1:1 and make a successful PSK31 contact.
