Whats this antenna for
In article ,

I wonder about a couple of the details of this antenna, first why are the reflector elements insulated from the boom? Second and more interestingly, the placement of the zig-zag elements in front of the reflector is not symmetrical top to bottom, side to side in the photo, I wonder what the purpose of this is, if it is to shape the vertical pattern to somehow maximize the gain when ground reflections are taken into account?
