You might find it very helpful to subscribe to the 
'antennas at mailman.qth.net' list for this one OM! There are some really 
technical dudes on this list and their joy in life is debating fact - 
folklore - fiction on all kinds of antennas! If anybody knows, it is apt to 
be one of this lists many subscribers.

A word of caution: Due to the high traffic volume, you may or may not wish 
to remain subscribed to this list! When it starts to roll, it rains e-mail 
for days! (chuckle) Some bright guys, great ideas, excellent assistance.
