You can perform your own EZNEC analysis using the free version. *The
benefit of this is you can control all the variables, adjust items 1
through 6 in the list above, and you can replicate your experience.
Doing this will also reveal what you need to do to optimize your

The W8JI web page goes to considerable length to bash the end fed Lazy
H with the twist, but since the real world performance of the center
fed Lazy H is less than stellar I'll have to give it a try.
There is one thing the center fed Lazy H did better than the dipole
and the extended double zepp. When I applied RF to the center fed
Lazy H four of my outside motion sensor flood lights would come on. I
guess if I wanted to go outside at night I could just switch to the
Lazy H, key the mic, and save myself a trip to the light switch. ha
