I think this is the key--the 15 meter portion of the antenna doesn't like "neighbors". I'm assuming John installed the feed wires from 10-20 drivers as per the book (1"? prox apart). Personally, I have improved mine significantly by sqeezing (temporarily) the wires together. I'm going to replace them this summer. I have a 40 meter antenna 15' above the C31XR.
