I know from modeling that what he
describes can work as far as the tuning device being able to tune the
dipole. "loop/cap/dipole combo. "
I tuned his 20m loop/dipole thing on all bands 20m-10m. I know the
exact cap values needed for each band.
Big deal....
But it's no different than any other dipole as far as pattern or gain.
It's no different than using an autotuner at the feed, T match, or
whatever. His loop and cap is a matching device. Nothing more, nothing
less.


g'day Keith

When it comes to modeling what you leave out is just as
important as what you put in, some times more so.
My money is still on Art.
