Default V Beam, do they work?


I was just reading about them in the antenna handbook. The v-beam is
better than a dipole and is directional, but the same wire bent
half-way out to make a rombic seems to add more gain. you might look
into it.

I've been modeling V beams off and on for a few years now, and never
can seem to get one that has useful gain.

Has anyone seen a successful model anyplace of a two or three wave V
with good gain??
