Martin,
I was thinking about a "reasonable" sized 40 meter antenna, which is why I
started the thread. I was hoping someone would pop up and say they had done it.

Subject: Re: [TowerTalk] Cob Web Antenna
I think the Cobweb(b) antenna is an excellent antenna for limited space
with usefulness as a second antenna for those with a bit more space.
I've seen a lot of discussion about its use in the horizontal plane from
20m-6m. I have a couple of questions that might have simple answers.
What happens when such an antenna is mounted vertically?
Assuming vertical mounting is not massively detrimental, what happens
when a second passive element of similar shape is added at a distance,
ala 2 element yagi/quad?
Most of the Cobweb style antennas I have seen stop at 20m yet they would
seem an ideal way to get reasonable size antennas on 30/40m, I don't
consider a full size 20m quad loop overly big. What's the catch?
