Anyone familiar with the Carolina Windom? What is it's claim to fame?
Looks like nothing more than a dipole fed off center with an isolator
to limit feed line radiation.

Actually, the isolator is some number of feet from the
feedpoint which ensures feedline radiation. The Carolina
Windom is a compromise between horizontal and vertical
radiation. It's performance falls between a horizontal
dipole and a 1/4WL vertical. Depending upon who you talk
to, it is either the best of both worlds or the worst of
both worlds.
