Several guys have asked me to give reports received about the 4-sq.
"Better than Beverage by 1/2 S unit on 80m, down 1/4 S unit from Beverage on
160m. F/B and F/S rejection 30-50 db."
"Two thumbs up!"
"Spend the money. You will be very pleased."
"During the contest there were at least 20 occasions where we could hear the
DX on the 4-sq. but nil on the TX antenna."
No reports of any flags, EWE's, pennants, or K9AY's beating out the
4-sq......the jury is still out, but this is apparently a very viable option
for those of us with 1-2 acre lots, and expeditioners.
Please keep those reports coming in! (philc@texascellnet.com)
