David I have used Yagi's for decades. Nothing wrong with them, they
harfest more than 90%
of radiation available and are directive and very easy to make. What I
am pursueing is a different aproach to radiation
in an effort to make smaller and efficient antennas without resorting
to fractional wavelength.
It should not matter to you if I succeed or not. We have had many
years of the Yagi without much improvement so I am turning antennas on
its head
and starting again from where the Masters put their ideas together.
Maxwell just played with numbers and equations supplied to him by the
forerunners
he just wasn't interested in equilibrium he was interested in the
interplay of numbers only. It is our good luck that all the
forerunners included the consequences of equilibrium in all their
functions so whether Maxwell was interested or not the equilibrium
format was included whether he understood that or not. Now you and
everybody else knows that computor programs were built solely around
Maxwells laws with the condition of equilibrium. Whether you like it
or not the program had to be extended so it was of use to amateurs who
used intercoupling of elements as a short cut to approximations of
radiation which foirtunatelly are quite good such that we have become
lazy in poursueing the laws of the Universe on the assumption that
there is no such
thing as a Universal law. I believe there is a universal law and I
will not be detered from that search from the likes of you who
apparently solved all the laws of nature before I started. If nyou got
there then so can I
Have a happy week end and for goodness sake quit the drinking and
savore the World as it is
