Thanks for the pointer. That one was a real eye opener. I always thought
that any angle 90 degrees or greater at the feedpoint was OK. I think
mine is something like about 100 degrees.


Actually I just calculated it out and it's more like around 130 degrees,
or each leg is just 25 degrees down from horizontal. So, according to
Cebik that should be pretty good.
