- I endorse this idea. I have also found in A/B tests with yagis, that quads can be a lot quieter on receive, which can be very helpful at times! One time I was single band 15 in the ARRL DX CW with 8/

- 1. A quad is a compromise in a since because it is the same a 2 stacked shortened yagis with a separation of only 1/4 wavelength. It can be viewed as two 1/4 wavelength yagi driven or parasitic eleme

- Hi Bill, I think you may be misunderstanding a quad antenna: A quad element is not a bent dipole or a shortened element in any way. It is a full-wave loop, an antenna that by itself exhibits gain ove

- My experience is that a quad is often quieter. I realize there is not a good analytic reason for this (or, at least, none has been found yet). I used a Cubex 5-band quad for several years and it was

- When you use a remote coax switch to switch one of five bands in a 5-band Quad, should the coax switch be setup to ground the unused bands' driven elements, or to let them "float"? Some remote coax s

- I did ground the loops that were not in use. I did this by default (because the relay was set up that way). I do not know if there is a "correct" choice. Bill -- W2WO _______________________________
