"This analysis is derived from Schelkunoff`s work that was later (1952) offered in his "Advanced Antenna Theory"." Kraus acknowledges this at the beginning of his 1950 "Antennas" chapter 8: "This problem (input resistance and reactance) is most simply approached by Schelkunoff`s treatment of the biconical antenna (S.A. Schelkunoff, "Electromagnetic Waves"1943) which will be outlined in the following sections." As Reg Edwards says, these guys all copied each other`s work. But, they nearly always gave each other the credit due. Other than a few discones, which have 180-degrees as one of their vertex angles, I don`t see many amateur conical antennas despite the obsession with bandwidth and SWR. Skeletal designs might retain desirable characteristics without extreme cost and complexity.....Nah, the plain thin wire dipole is too simple and easy. Best regards, Richard Harrison, KB5WZI |
