My understanding of antenna modeling is that sharp corners or connecting points should be avoided as they can create errors. The question I ask is what constitutes a sharp angle ? I am assuming that it is the capacitance at the connection is the problem. If so is the corner of a quad a problem or is a delta feed point on a dipole a problem ? I see many instances of quads being modeled and also " V" wire antennas each without a correcting "gusset" at the corners. So when is an angle termed to be sharp? Regards Art When it is at a current maximum. At a voltage maximum it's irrelevant. Just my opinion.
