I have compromises I'm willing to make, and indeed it looks like a corner
reflector will do what I want. Engineering is the art of compromise.



Corner reflectors are good, but keep in mind that it will challenging to
maintain similar SWR, not to mention gain, over the multiple bands of
interest.


I'm only interested in a small frequency range. I said that I could scale
designs on ham bands to what I want.

My standard question: what problem are you trying to solve? At this point

it
seems a bit open ended to help more specifically.


I want to minimize signals from off-axis, and then achieve minimum beamwidth
(maximum directivity).
Gain and bandwidth are compromise points.
