If you have the space --- 2 verticals phased work very well. I have used two
coaxial inverted L's (actually they were
almost entirely vertical) phased at my previous two QTHs with very nice
results. (I am presently using a 4 square of
coaxial inverted L's which is even better)
Phasing can be done with delay lines or the COMTEK system. I have used both
and they both work (The COMTEK
system gives some extras which are very nice (off either end and also a figure
8 pattern)
Good luck and let me know if you want any further details.
