Guy from university physics ... Eureka! A picture!

The damn thing is nothing short of amazing. The best I have done before
this was a 1/2 wave electrical length, helical wound to a 1/4 physical
length using a modified gamma feed of my own design--this beats it.

I am just disappointed that the patent system allows a rearrangement of
already and quite commonly known/implemented designs/methods/practices
to be patented; as far as I am concerned, all this should be considered
to be in the public domain ... but, this will little affect amateurs,
the antenna itself is just too easy to construct--I am working on a dual
band 20/10m version now.

Also, I am now playing with an electrical 1/4 wave in a 2'+ physical
implementation ...

I have already presented enough details of the 1/2 wave version that
anyone can repeat my experiment(s) ... I do not wish to keep doing that
.... I get nothing out of it, others need to make mistakes, have success,
or just try their wildest imagination upon this project--this way we all
learn.

Frankly, I think the high performance standard of mobile antennas has
just changed when small size and stealth are of importance ...

Regards,
JS
