Default Yagi efficiency

It is a long time since I completed the Oxford and Cambridge entrance
exam on written english so I probably have lost some of my style
because of my under pinninings of being a Cockney It took a while
working in America to obtain communication skills but not long ago
while in San Diego I came across the college for American spoken
english
which I was unaware of. However because of a broken brain which is the
result of a heart attack it is too late for corrective action.
Fortunately I have no difficulty in the
comprehension of the main style american language which allows for a
modicom of understanding

Egad. There's no point in my wasting time by attempting to contribute

Roy, it was obviously a troll, and many of us have been caught
(again).

Art's lead in "one can see that the yagi is very inefficient" should
have been recognised by us all as bait.


No, whatever art's problems are, I don't believe he's a troll. I'm
confident that he's sincere in his statements and questions. It's just
that he often makes no sense to me, and when he does, it's sometimes so
contrary to established physics that it's reminiscent of the new age
folks. His unconventional use of "efficiency" is typical, like the use
of "energy" by the paraphysical crowd. Once in a while I make an honest
try to contribute something rational, but usually end up just making him
mad and provoking even sillier statements -- as happened again this
time. So there's really no point in it.
