6m 3el quad question
 
I just finished construction but my holes in the boom for
the spreaders were not perfectly square so my reflector
is rotated about 5-10 degrees out of line with the other
elements. Does this matter that much? I could cut the
boom, rotate the reflector into alignment and re-attach
if it was that important. Is it?

Electrically - very little, if anything. Loop (closed) doesn't know what
polarization it is.
Esthetically - it will look (slightly) crooked, need to point in direction
that will hide it from the major people traffic area :-)
