Tnom;
I plugged in the values that you posted. By simulation, the
Stainless whip has just about a 1 dB edge. The S/S whip has its main
lobe at 27.9 degrees, the X-terminator at 31.2 degrees. I posted a
current plot for it in:
alt.binaries.pictures.radio
I played with the parameters for the coils, and one coil works just as
well as the 2. Guess it just doesn't look as cool?
I don't disagree with what Mmana says but, there is no antenna
simulation program that can give the definitive answer for how a
antenna will actually perform in a real installation.
In other words when a engineer plugs in his values when designing a
new product he can never just rely on the computer or that design as
the final product. If he is to give performance numbers on the product
he can never use the computed values. He must use the measured
values. The measured value is always the most direct and accurate way
to evaluate a product.
