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?


Roy you have no further to look than this thread and it appeared un der your
name



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.


Yes I am aware of that and I expressed amazement at your lack of knoweledge
as expressed in this thread. At the same time I see you are referring to
stuff
that you wrote when you were younger and things change as you get older.
A case in point is the ELZEC program which frankly does not match up with
todays technology or competitive programs yet maintains a high price
presumably based on your past achievements.
But when you express your knoweledge as you did this week
and showed complete lack of knoweledge regarding the subject at hand then
it may well be a sign of the times as it were and you resorted to attack,
not the
underpinnings of what I stated but me as an individual. If you were a
profesional
you would have attacked the polygon example given at the onset of this
thread
but then you expressed lack of knoweledge of the subject and I commended
you for that but the passing of time places no mercy on any of us mortals
as
we age despite our personally perceived station in life.






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



If the subject of vector arrays is voodoo then I agree you are guilty as
charged


Its a real shame that you are taking this attitude but if all you want is a
piece of me
then I am not going to go away
