Bill:

Re the erection of Mike's EW Loop, I've seen others comment 
about loop orientation on the reflector.  What is your thoughts
about the square versus diamond configuration?  If you stick 
with the conventional 2500 sq ft (50X50) dimensions, can you 
estimate the advantage of the diamond pattern?

This pattern might offer me and better compromise in terms of 
available sapce in the yard versus better ability to get a signal
out of Ohio.  The apex of the diamond would, at 49 feet, meet 
the intent of part 15? Where do you put the feed point?

Thanks for you inputs and best regards,
