That's quite understandable, given that the original Lattin designed used
tubular Twin Lead and countd on a velocity factor of 0.8.

What sort of test gear and design methods did you folks use?

Hi Jim,

This hard to accept given the timelines offered by those who have
reported the references. For one, the antenna was invented in the
late 40's and patented 26 Dec. 1950, and reported in 1960. ALL such
dates precede the introduction of tubular Twin Lead in the mid 60s.
