Oh come on Wes look at your last posting where you poked fun at the idea of
a polygon phasor array. And look at the other postings where it was obvious
that many were not familiar with the same and needed more direction. Look at
Roy,
he admitted he knows nothing about the subject. . .

What subject is that? Phased arrays? Phasors? Vectors? Polygons? I made
no admission of the kind! Can you quote what I said and when I said it?

I learned about vectors in high school physics class, and phasors on my
own while in high school over 40 years ago now. Both were, of course,
nearly daily fare throughout my college EE curriculum, and frequently
used during my career as an electronics design engineer. As for phased
arrays, have you ever looked at Chapter 8 of the ARRL Antenna Book (of
the last 15 years or so), or my article in Vol. 2 of the ARRL Antenna
Compendium (1989), "The Simplest Phased Array Feed System -- That
Works"? The techniques I describe in both those publications do,
incidentally, work as claimed, and have been shown to do so many times.

Or do you mean I know nothing about the subject of voodoo science? If
so, I'm guilty as charged.
