So, the long and short of it is:

* * *Observe proper phasing requirements.

You can perform your own EZNEC analysis using the free version. *The
benefit of this is you can control all the variables, adjust items 1
through 6 in the list above, and you can replicate your experience.
Doing this will also reveal what you need to do to optimize your
antenna. *

The W8JI web page goes to considerable length to bash the end fed Lazy
H with the twist, but since the real world performance of the center
fed Lazy H is less than stellar I'll have to give it a try.

There is one thing the center fed Lazy H did better than the dipole
and the extended double zepp. When I applied RF to the center fed
Lazy H four of my outside motion sensor flood lights would come on. I
guess if I wanted to go outside at night I could just switch to the
Lazy H, key the mic, and save myself a trip to the light switch. ha
