wish to try it- look for those names, or for W2NLY-W6QKI in the
ARRL handbooks mentioned. But it must leave to the builder one
of the following conclusions: 1) It was great on 144, but a dog
on 1296, or: 2) It wasn't the greatest design , for even 144 (tho
it compairs favorable with the range patterns that were shown
in the VHF handbook, for 144)! As info, Jim NN7K

And, except for the K1FO designs, the VHF handbook contains one of the
worst collections of yagis ever assembled. They are at least as bad as
the Cushcraft VHF/UHF yagis that had the dual reflectors.
