[Antennas] W8JK 2 element beam for 20 meters

[Bill]

I cannot be very technical about it but years ago I had one as a Novice 
and then General Class in 1958. And I again made one about 15 years ago. 
About 4 to 5 db gain in two directions. I've made them out of 
bamboo(spreaders) and also 1 "x 1" pieces of wood. A great performer but 
really a monobander. Being harmonic, a 40 meter will work with some 
tuner help on 15 but don't expect much out of 20. No tower needed but 
you do need two supports.
