Often hear skewed paths when using big
yagi stack at Contest station on 40m
Often Southeast Asia peaking strongly with
both yagis pointing due SW - not SP bearing NW
90 degrees off SP bearing
Happens often on 40, 80 and 160
Why this obsession with True North on the reflector?
Even on 20 , 15 and 10 when operating
contest yagis with LONG Booms , we peak the signals
Bearings be damned! Guys , you are wasting your energy
with determination of absolute True North - waste of time.
