Gentlemen, thanks for the offline comments.
And yes, I do understand and agree that more radials leads to less
individual radial dependence. NL's QEX articles show that in the graphs
which is very interesting. And also that a ground mounted screen is less
sensitive yet.
The current install is a temporary setup just to carry through this contest
season and into next year when I can get the tree work done to clear the
final resting place. So 4 is the magic number. And the question is how to
lay out those few to get the best overall symmetrical pattern among the 4
verticals in the array.
Sorry for the confusion.

Fellows, I think that's an interesting question.
Please reply to Jeff's inquiry on the reflector, so all of us who are
interested in the subject can benefit from your advice.
