All this and more in detail on the FlightAware forums!


Do they discuss antenna theory there?



Yes. look for posts by abcd567. He has a number of posts on theory
behind co-linear antennas, and common pitfalls in their construction.

Look for posts by other hams (usually identified by callsign) as well.

There's a good article from colorado state on generalized CoCo
antennas. I believe they're also covered in a number of RSGB antenna
and VHF society publications.

(while some discuss theory, a lot of what's discussed is of the "mine
is bigger than yours" variety, and people wondering why the n-element
co-co they built from salvaged wire gives them worse results than the
stock little whip)
