Is anywhere the information how the bent driver works? I don't know how it works, Maximo. I have been using bent elements to design antennas for the 88-108 FM broadcast band for about ten years. Bent

Just a note that I've updated my OWA writeup with curves for a 3-element Yagi with bent driven element and hairpin match. This design has a good pattern on the low end of the band and relaxes it high
