Some of us remember Wilson antennas. Wilson sold aluminum and if their
antennas had any significant gain you were fortunate.

## Wilson interlaced arrays never did work. The higher freq portion was always
a dud.
They didnt use software to design em..fubar, nor did they factor in the
myriad of swages.
On their 20-15 duobanders, the 15 was a dud. On their 15-10 duobanders, the
10 was a dud.
## If you want a real laff, model some of these old yagis in modern software.
Including telrex,
with their equal spaced eles. The results were none too good.
