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.

What is the length of your feedline?
