I saw a strange antenna at the end of my street today, this gentleman had
a
moonraker up, but took it down and replaced it with something I have never
seen before
it is a beam antenna with vertical elements as well as elements at 45
degree
angles from the 0-180 plane so one vertical up and two at angles down four
sets of elements in each plane.

Any idea what the idea behind this is? It looks to be a home brew antenna.

yep that must be it thanks...never seen one before. His still looks to be
home brewed though, as the elements were bent, not angled hardware.
