Thanks, Reg, for the valuable insight. It does pay to read the posts

========================================
Walt,

Yes, there is only one G4FGQ. Although I confess I don't spend much
time on the air these days. Poor health!

When it comes to antennas, one reason why I don't publicise the source
code of my programs is that they are full of proven little tricks like
the foregoing which give answers in the right american ball-park.
There is always the danger that unjustified, unqualified criticism
would spoil the confidence and integrity to be placed in them by
novices. If for any reason you don't like a program you can always
have your money back!

One day I might list my 60 years of engineering experience but it may
be construed as bragging.

And a compliment from you, Walt, is a compliment indeed!

Reg, with your experience, along with your wonderful assistance to others
through your myriad of useful programs made available at no cost to others, but
with much cost to you in terms of time spent creating them, you've earned your
bragging rights many times over. Apparently, we have a mutual complimentary
relationship.

Walt
