There is a TV antenna something like that on a rooftop within 2 blocks
from here. IIt must have some exceptional characteristic. Someone built
it. The elements are short compared to several wavelengths at 200 MHz.

Does the model result in a low deivepoint impedance?

Does the Vee result in high response off the tips of the elements?

Does close coupling between elements result in great bandwidrh for the
antenna?
