Hi there
I received some dimensions for an XQ quad.
12el on 28ft boom for 50 MHz.
Claimed gain over 18dBd wow

Now the question:
Anyone able to do a computer simulation on it...?
My 2 rough calculations show an gain of just over 16dBI ....!!!!!

Here are the dimensions
REFLECTOR 502"
Driven el 478"
dir 1     454"
dir 2     438"
dir 3     426"
all other dir 411"

spacing is 30" for all loops
-------------------------------------------
My remarks: design based on equal spacing (vy old)
            to many elements on boom, 7 or 8 would be better fer this 
            boom lenght
            Gain abt 16.4 dBi max.
--------------------------------------------
So anyone who can help me, with run on these dimensions or an info
abt soft able to simulate this

Regards John    ON4ANT
