Re: [TenTec] OCF antennas evolution

[Stuart Rohre <rohre@arlut.utexas.edu>]

Wade and the group,

Wade's antenna is very close to the 135 foot doublet, and that has been 
modeled and plotted by the late L. B. Cebik, whose collected antenna 
works are at www.cebik.com.
He typically models the fundamental band based on the length of the 
antenna and its patterns on all higher bands.
He also pointed out that a dipole only 60 per cent of a half wave at a 
given band is still over 90 per cent efficient.
