Default Yagi efficiency

Art,

As I re-consider this statement, I don't believe you at all. The
earliest solutions to your "problem" were satisfied by stacked yagis.
They also answer what you complain of above as well. Bay arrangements
of yagis go even further. As they are skeletal versions of a massive
dipole array against a screen, all are solutions that are merely the
natural consequence of massive duplication and constructive phase
shift.

This stuff has been around for half a century or more and you have yet
to reveal anything new, much less a method that transcends existing
knowledge. If you had more experience in using modelers, and
examining the history of antenna design, then you could confidently
make the statement above. However, nothing in your correspondence
even reveals you understand the fundamentals beyond parroting phrases
cut and paste from other sources.
