A simple periodic Bernstein-Greene-Kruskal equilibrium is constructed, in which trapped electrons make a small contribution to the reactive part of the one-wave dispersion relation. This contribution is found to have an important effect on stability of the wave against decay into sidebands. Enhanced growth rates and frequency shifts are calculated.
