I am going to build an array of 4 stacked dipoles for operation on 2 metres.
I would like to know whether the gamma fed dipole has any advantage over the
folded dipole, apart from the folded dipole being a tad more difficult to
make.

I have heard that the gamma fed dipole has a skewed radiation pattern in
comparison to the folded one.

Any thoughts and advice?
Many thanks

EME operators, who have the greatest need of pattern control, noise
temperature and efficiency, would not agree. *They use the T match.

I do not think so . He is worse than the folded dipole . . .
