In the 70's I built a 2M beam that used a double extended zepp as the driven element. I put 1/2 wave dipoles on each side of the boom as directors and reflectors of the appropriate lengths and spacing. I centered the high current points on the dipoles with the high current points in the 5/8 wave, and fed it with 450 ohm line to a balanced tuner. The thing had a great pattern, great balance, and a lot of gain. 73 W9OY __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
