Any Tom, Dick and Harry can copy and build a circuit out of a book.

But it takes a top-class engineer just to look at a strange circuit
and describe what it does, how it works.

These days, there are mostly Tom's, Dick's and Harry's!
====================================
Amendment -

For "circuit" read "antenna".

"Tom's, Dick's and Harry's" has replaced "old wives". ;o) ;o)

Hello Reg,

I haven't previously tried to attach a jpg file in this arena, but I'm going to
try. If my jpg file comes through, can you describe what it does and how it
works?

Rats, now you have me intrigued Walt. Too bad the pic did not work.
Just tried to post a picture, but it seems there is a filter on the NG to
prevent such postings.

Reg, have made a lot of progress in developing a NEC 4 model
of a 100 radial system. Just have to iron out a few bugs. When this
is completed I can try some high frequency models.

Walt was nice enough to send me the graphic and, so others can see it,
I've placed it on my web page for your viewing pleasure.

At first glance I thought of the multiplexed FM broadcast antennas on One
Shell Plaza in Houston 33 years ago..

Hi Frank,

I used the 'help' menu in Agent, but it doesn't seem to let me post an
attachment. Guess, like you said, it must be an NG rule that prevents it.
Anyhoo, jist fertheleovit, I'm going to email you the jpg file fyi.

Walt, W2DU

Yes Walt, I got a message in the send window that said the NG rejected it.
Don't forget to removed the "nospam." from my e-mail address, also note
the period after the "m"., which must also be removed.

Will be curious to see the jpeg, but doubt I will be smart enough to figure
it out.

Thanks,

Frank
