Hi Richard,

I note that these were designed at 1296. They would likely be a
practical antenna on that band and ground would not be an issue although
trees may be.

I wonder how hard it would be to make one as a printed circuit board?

Not too long do I wonder. The structure will be exactly as defined
within limits of the board specs.

The only issue is how large PCB stock I can buy.

Hi Tom,

If you could generate a graphic with controlled geometry at that
scale, and then etch it, yes, I think it would work quite well.

I will now (most modestly) add my own contributions posted some
decade++ ago (humble, humble) at:
http://www.qsl.net/kb7qhc/antenna/fr...244c/index.htm
for which we may thank the ex-N1IR (who graciously abandoned his
soiled moniker for another to inherit) for the fractal variant to
orthodoxy. Oh woe betides the unknowing innocent for whom this may
all seem irreverent and confusingly impenetrable. (Yes, I am in my
cups. Taking a bow. Grandiloquent sweeping gesture to the audience.)
