Hi Tom,

Actually Art arrived back in the dark ages of the fin-de-siecle. He
had just had a patent issued for a new invented antenna and asked if
anyone could explain how it worked. (drum-roll)

Several were astonished (as I have already mentioned) to find that his
antenna design had reflector (the new and improved model had two)
elements that were shorter than the driven element, and the director
elements longer.

Well, when no one could fulfill that request, we've been sub-morons
ever since. It's a rare honour that he keeps coming back here for the
validation of cretins when the Nobel Committee is located in Sweden.

So are his fantasies new? Or did he have them before and just got a
stump from the patent office?

I truthfully don't remember him being around until lately.

The amazing thing is that his story slowly morphs with time, although it
might be better to say he adds more layers of manure.

And you would know seeing as you are full of it,
Art has posed the question can you answer it or are you
going to duck it as you usually do by making demands
and no offerings.

Welcome to the group! This is what, maybe your 3rd post? And you have
done nothing but snipe in all of them.

Art has posed no questions with any meaning to me, or for anyone else
for that matter. And I have said nothing that disagrees with reality.
Unlike Art, who is trying to prove fantasy with empty contrived
arguments that change day by day. He lives on diamagnetic levitating sand.

So yes, I will duck the non-question.

Hi Tom,

By no means. The only thing that has changed over the years is that
he stopped his lamentations of being a martyr duct-taped to his
alumin(i)um crosses.

Of course no one could prove for Art how his antenna worked. They
weren`t gifted with his type of genius.

As Terman says on page 906 0f his 1955 opus:
"The fact that a parasitic antenna placed close to a radiaring antenna
can be used either to reflect or to direct the radiated energy can be
taken advantage of to obtain a compact directional antenna system. A
simple example is shown in Fig. 23-39 where the reflector length is such
that it is resonant at a lower frequency than that being transmitted,
while the the director length is chosen so that it is resonant at a
higher frequency than is being transmitted."

Most everyone in this newsgroup has tried the classic Yagi arrangement
and knows that Terman has it right.

Art`s patent does not prove Terman wrong.
