Hi Jim, I am working on the design, however the premise appears to be "academic." In other words, there are some who can tell you how it should work, but not why it doesn't. I *like* that turn of phrase! "There are some who can tell you how it should work, but not why it doesn't." Perfect companion to: "If it happens, it must be possible." Your description above suits the modeling to a T - serious math pushups. Thanks. I don't think anyone could stumble onto a 5 band antenna by simple cut and try. I disagree! I think it not only could happen, but probably has happened already, through a fortuitous combination of many factors. But being able to come up with such a design that is well-documented and reproducible is a whole 'nother thing. The Lattin antenna is a perfect example of that. 73 de Jim, N2EY |
