Quads also have all the advantages that loops enjoy over dipoles. One
thing that comes to mind is a marked reduction in static electricity due
to wind and snow because the entire loop is virtually at DC ground.


A yagi built with "plumbers delight" construction has every element bolted
directly to the metal boom, so every element is at DC ground.
