I would like to thank all of you who have been contributing to the 4 square
discussion. I am active duty US Navy and REALLY want to get up a nice little
antenna/array for 20 meters that will perfrom well with little need for a
tower. In the past I have successfully used vertical yagis supported by
either trees on the lot or a wooden mast.

I am thinking for the first time of trying the ComTek phased array unit with
four verticals. Using a 20 foot 2X4 to hold up a cross boom at the top that
when viewed from ground level at the foot of the 2X4 would look like a +
plus sign. Then drop the vertical wires down from here.

Thanks for all the great info guys. The ComTek web page is extremely helpful
also.
