Noticed same thing here, Paul with e-antennas, so tried this and it serves
well from 17.2 kc. to 6 meters.
Pulled down all the other wire antennas, no more ground radials or top load
wires needed, plus is more quiet on RX.
Gets out well on 600M too. 160M, 80M, 30M, it doesn't care where it
tunes...
Mostly no de-tuning with snow and wet... ( maybe 2 kc. )

Hello Mal, LF
In my case it is still snowing here, no way to keep the antenna tuned atm.
Short
high impedance antennas are tricky to keep happy. Just like me they prefer
dry
weather and clear skies :)
