antennas don't have to be 'in resonance'.... a very short dipole
radiates almost as well as one 1/2 wavelength long... its all in the
fields.

As I tried to make Art understand with respect to yagis, it's not
necessarily resonant (or even usually), it's matched. *By the matching
network.

It was like releasing excess nitrogen containing waste into the wind,
like all things are with Art.

And you think I didn't know that like it was a personal secret of
yours?
I don't even remember discussing yagis with you. I moved away from
those years ago when I was building antennas with 80 foot booms and a
dozen or more elements all made of fishing poles with aluminum foil
surfaces. Now I am interested in antennas the size that Chip works
with but not with the same aproach. In fact I am committed to having
antennas made that are small enough for those with small gardens to
use, where how much money or land that you have allow you to run over
others is not a measure of ones skills. As for you you just sit on the
side lines with nothing to offer but insults since you appear to live
alone berift of friends. Try smiling instead of just growling and get
a life.
