[Antennas] QUADS & BEAMS ??

[SECOPSYS at aol.com]

Quads are quieter..many times I can copy weak signals on my quad 100% when 
they are "there but not copiable" on my yagi.

Quads are much more broadbanded.  Great SWR across entire band.

Quads are much more forgiving..spacing 2 elements 10 thru 13 feet (on 
20mtrs) and  it'll still works very well..perhaps not optimized but works very 
well.

A little patience, a slingshot, a roll of #14 THHN wire, and a  decent tree 
will give you 2 diamond shaped 20 meter elements (fed at botton of diamond) 
in a fixed favored direction for very little money.
