The Germans used "bed-frame" HF antennas on their reconnaissance
vehicles.  Does anyone have any specific information on these mobile
antennas:

I'm not at all sure if these were loops or very short top-loaded
verticals.  I'd like to model these in NEC, but I need to know how they
were fed, what's insulated and what's not etc.

Any help appreciated,
Al
