hi all
First time on the list, so here goes.I built the 10m 4ele beam in the arrl 
handbook. All seemed ok until you put the thing up the mast ( a mere 30ft 
).Then the swr went awol and a lot of work ensued sorting it out.Im now 
unsure if its wkg anywhere near the design parameters and need to sort it 
out.If anyone has a decent workable design for a 4ele 10m beam on a 14ft 
boom using 3/8 6061 t6 for the centres and 1/2 6061 t6 for the inserts.It 
is gamma matched and would like to keep that method of matching.If anyone 
can help i will be eternally grateful.Also how does a quad compare with a 
beam as im building the swiss quad in the arrl handbook for fun and will be 
interested in how its going to perform.
TIA Robert ( G0URR ) a new rtty contester on the sth coast of GB.
