Would anyone have a copy of an article from either 73 or CQ magazine
somewhere around the 90's which contained an article on how to
construct a Fractal Quad antenna for 10 metres. The design was based on
work done by Nathan Coen N1IR.

Whisper Does the Buffoon still come around?
I don't think he is buffoon, he had an idea that was novel and looks like
he is selling a bunch of them.

The way he acted, not what he knew or how many he could sell
determined if he was a Buffoon...He was/is.

You must admit that there was a certain amount of entertainment in Chip's
postings. *If someone asked him a simple question, such as "how long was the
longest element on the antenna you built"....he could have just said "x
feet". *Instead, he would post a 6 paragraph rant and direct the person
asking the question to some obscure publication.

He was great entertainment as a Buffoon! *He just never caught on to
the fact he was the featured headliner. *If threats to sue people were
money, many here would be much wealthier than they are now!
Many people use the phrase,"They laughed all the way to the bank".
Which may be true, but does not lessen the fact that some are just
destined to be Buffoons. *It is their "lot in life", "their fate". *No
matter how much money he makes or fame he acquires, be will always be
a Buffoon.

The over welming importance of the Fractal antenna is that it
ALWAYS presents a resistive load when discounting proximetry effects.
Thus leaving the problems of efficiency to the "matching" issues.
