It is hanging in the yard right now and obviously is very efficient at
what it does.

You mean it's very efficient at hanging in the yard?
Joking aside, I'd be interested in a *NEC file. Is it possible to
model, or is it restricted by the number of segments?

Restricted by the number of segments but I have tested enough of the
diifferent designs
to know what I am talking aboutand only a few can be programed but
with limited segments
it can only provide guidance. MAYBE one day I will supply the patent
request number
I received last year as well as the following patent number but the
number of insults
have ruled that possibility out. The person who is testing it never
insulted me and
wanted badly to be on the inside of this new antenna. Sooner or later
the PTO will provide all.
The hula hoop was just a design for checking, The one I have now is on
a tip and turn set up
for the top of my tower for use with a mesh dish for 160 and all other
frequencies. I want to change the polarity
in situ !.
You never can stop learning once you get off the normal path and
penetrate the underbrush.
Suddenly the brush is behind and a clear valley bathed in sun light
appears and you have little time
to fully explore
There are many different versions of this antenna primarily to get a
complete range of impedences
for use as well as determining tilt angle e.t.c.

Let me clarify my answer.
The natural resonance resistance can exceed 1000 ohms
thought with the same design the resistance can be lowered
at the expense of bandwidth. These design forms can be easily
modelled with or without a dish reflector. I introduced twisted
wire into the design to overcome the reduced bandwidth of
the other design to bring the resistance down to the 50 to
100 ohm mark for easy match to existing components.
Since the impedance resistance is drastically lowered when
using the standard design on the computor I am inclined only
to use the computor as a guide in that instance. The dish
modelled consist of parallel elements which obviously would
be a bear to tilt so many inaccuracies are built in except in
the case of the assembly being tilted which I am presently
researching.
