Homer, lowering the plastic disk that supports the radials will not hurt the performance of the antenna although it may make adjusting your gamma harder. In fact the lower the disk is the less RF voltage will be across it. Placing the plastic supports too high on the radials can cause them to arc over the insulator at high power.
