The May 2005 issue of QST had an interesting antenna article on page
33... basically discussing broadband dipoles. I am particularly interested
in the biconical (fan) dipole discussed. It is basically two dipoles
common at the feed point, with a slight divergence out to the ends. I
believe they discussed a spread of 6 feet at the ends for an 80 meter
version.

This antenna may be just what I was looking for to put up on 75M.
Do you antenna experts here on this list have any opionions on this? I
prefer "resonant" antennas fed with coax as opposed to open wire feedline
with tuners, but I would like to be able to operate over the entire 75M
band with my IC746Pro.. Comments?
