When you added the booster, do you have the elements at the right length? I know my 3 element Gizmo was the easiest beam I ever put together. I set it to spec, checked it 20 foot off the ground, put it up on the roof and it stayed the same as when just off of the ground!
If you like I can call you and we can talk, maybe we can figure it out faster than going back and forth on here. PM me your phone number if you like and I will give you a call!

If you ever need to talk about anything just post on here or on my Facebook page. I enjoy talking radio, even though I seldom key the microphone like I once did. Since my last heart attack my speech isn't as good, so I have shied away from the mic.... but still interested in radio!
