[Boatanchors] "TriPhazer" Bobtail antennas

[D C *Mac* Macdonald]

It's been a long time since I read anything about 
these antennas. However (IIRC), a bobtail curtain 
antenna starts out as bi-directional, just as the 
auction states. With proper switching of the feed 
point, a 90 degree shift is apparently possible, 
which then would provide FOUR primary azimuths of 
radiation.
