Any Tom, Dick and Harry can copy and build a circuit out of a book.

But it takes a top-class engineer just to look at a strange circuit
and describe what it does, how it works.

These days, there are mostly Tom's, Dick's and Harry's!
====================================
Amendment -

For "circuit" read "antenna".

"Tom's, Dick's and Harry's" has replaced "old wives". ;o) ;o)

Hello Reg,

I haven't previously tried to attach a jpg file in this arena, but I'm
going to
try. If my jpg file comes through, can you describe what it does and how
it
works?

Rats, now you have me intrigued Walt. Too bad the pic did not work.
Just tried to post a picture, but it seems there is a filter on the NG to
prevent such postings.

Reg, have made a lot of progress in developing a NEC 4 model
of a 100 radial system. Just have to iron out a few bugs. When this
is completed I can try some high frequency models.
