Your comments seem to be designed to undermine the discussion. John, I find your reply to be rather bizarre. In the message you replied to, I didn't mention antenna patterns at all. I only mentioned the balun as an example of how current can be equal on both terminals, but the device can be either balanced or unbalanced. That is an outright lie. Did you or did you not write... But you have added a wire which will load the generator and serve as an element of the antenna changing the radiation pattern. How significantly the pattern will change depends on the orientation of the wire and what it connects to, if anything. And I wrote... Please disregard the radiation pattern in this thread. Did you or did you not write (as shown above)... I only mentioned the balun as an example of how current can be equal on both terminals, but the device can be either balanced or unbalanced. and in my OP did I or did I not write... "I propose that we not discuss baluns, but concentrate on antenna balance and coax attachment." And then later, did I or did I not write (shown above)... I asked that we not consider baluns... It does not matter WHY you brought up baluns again. If you cannot discuss this without patterns and baluns as requested, then we cannot have a meeting of the minds. If you require such crutches, then your analytical abilities are weak. |

But you have added a wire which will load the generator and serve as an element of the antenna changing the radiation pattern. How significantly the pattern will change depends on the orientation of the wire and what it connects to, if anything. That was written several messages back, not in the post you were replying to. And I wrote... Please disregard the radiation pattern in this thread. Which you didn't do... you didn't "disregard" it. You decided to pick a fight over it. Did you or did you not write (as shown above)... I only mentioned the balun as an example of how current can be equal on both terminals, but the device can be either balanced or unbalanced. and in my OP did I or did I not write... "I propose that we not discuss baluns, but concentrate on antenna balance and coax attachment." I don't go back to the OP every time I reply to a thread. I'm sorry if I have offended you. And then later, did I or did I not write (shown above)... I asked that we not consider baluns... It does not matter WHY you brought up baluns again. If you cannot discuss this without patterns and baluns as requested, then we cannot have a meeting of the minds. If you require such crutches, then your analytical abilities are weak. In other words, you have no interest in discussing the topic, you would rather pick a fight? You snipped my request that you discuss the issue rather than focusing on the negative. Ok, if you don't want to discuss the issues this conversation is over, no? If you want to discuss the issues, I suggest you return to my last post and address the issues, not the BS. -- Rick |
