I have an end fed antenna which I have added 24 feet to it, it is one of those end fed 6-80 24 feet in length, with the additional wire I have it running vertical and have 3 feet left over so I just ran it back up on opposite of the fiber glass pole, swr 1.5 to 1, or the question is..should I just take the extra 3 feet and wrap it in a circulat configuration ..which is better
tnx
