Ok Richard so I am inept, let us leave it at that. There are many
experts and guru's on this newsgroup
who pretty much agree with you and not one has come forward to refute
some of the things that have been stated against what I proffer

I refute things you say quite often, but you ignore them.
As an example, you constantly state that an antenna should
be a full wave length in order to live a productive and useful life.
You claim such an antenna is in equilibrium. Whatever that is
supposed to mean to you. We don't know how equilibrium applies
in your case, as you refuse to tell anyone when questioned.
When I state that a full wave has no real efficiency advantage vs
a half wave, a statement which almost everyone knows is true,
you ignore it.
Of course, using a small antenna the size of two shoe boxes is
not really a full wave antenna. It's still a very small antenna fed
with a loading coil made up of a full wave length of wire, if I
understand what you are doing. And with your winding technique,
it's quite easy to see how this could be a very lossy method to
feed such a small radiator. You basically have a dummy load on
a stick.
A good 160m mobile antenna setup would tear it a new one.. :/

So I will assume that the program is accepted for Yagi' but not for
radiators in equilibrium.

How can a radiator be in equilibrium? You are talking about a
piece of metal.

All this is not unusual a lot of things that were found out were
delayed from the public because of people just couldn';t take change.

Change... Hummm.. A common Obama mantra..
Change can be good, or change can be bad.
Throwing a lot of the Wall Street CEO's in prison would be a
fairly good change.
A new president who thinks he can bend the constitution to suit
his personal agenda would not be a good change.
Ignoring proven data and replacing it with faulty unproven data would
not be a good change.
Using proven data and building on it to prove a new design or theory
would not be a bad change, if the new design or theory can pass
the scrutiny of rigorous testing over a period of time.
Using conjured up baffle gab to try to prove a new theory is
not going to cut it in the change dept.
BTW, I mention Obama quite a bit, and it's probably no secret I'm
no fan of his.
But I want to mention it is not on a personal level, or due to his
skin color, etc. I'm sure he can be a fairly decent guy at times,
but I still think he's a blatant socialist, and I have little use for
him.
He's a constitutional attorney who has no respect for the
constitution. IE: he'd like to take a big crap on the 2nd
amendment if he ever gets the chance for just one example.
This is not to say I really like McCain either..
I'm more of the independent Libertarian ilk.. If a politician can't
follow the constitution, I have zero use for them.

But back to the matter at hand..

Those who do not understand the rules of science with respect to
radiators say it is bafflegab because they don't understand the
sciences.

I understand enough to tell a turd from a diamond any day.
An Einstein level of reasoning is not required for this simple
task.

So I will let it go at that and assume that I am the one out of step.

You have taken the first step towards recovery.

You and others have made your point and there is no such thing than a
better antenna than the Yagi and that all is known is about antennas
and nothing that is not printed in a book is acceptable to radio hams.
I get the message and that should make every one happy

Just more whining from a disenchanted pseudo inventer..
I don't even know how the poor Yagi got involved. The yagi
has zero to do with anything I have argued about.
A contra wound dummy load on a stick, and a yagi and
about as different animals as chipmunks and baboons.

Or are you know abandoning the dummy load on a stick,
and returning to the perverted array with skewed elements
you harped on quite a few months ago?
You know, the one that provided less performance than
the properly designed yagi with an equal number of elements..
You know, the one I called the cluster%#&* antenna..
Chortle.. :/
