I've seen pictures (which I can't seem to find on the internet) of old
AM
broadcast antennas consisting of multiple parallel wires strung
between
two towers on the rooftop of a building. These were typically located
on
top of a hotel, with the broadcast studio in the hotel.
Were these wires truly parallel, or were they strung in a zig-zag
pattern
(which I'll try to illustrate below)? If parallel, what's the theory
and
advantage of having them parallel?

Dammit, I figured my illustration wouldn't display correctly. Does
anyone know why the text in my posts become fragmented? Is it
Google or Windows (or both) that can't even process simple text
correctly?
It is your choice of font ... try an non-variable width font with equal
spacing of all characters ...
What you want is a fixed-width font, as opposed to a non-proportional
font ...
THIS:
"Most examples of ASCII art require a fixed-width font (non-proportional
fonts, as on a traditional typewriter) such as Courier for presentation."
