[TowerTalk] Portable tribander design help?

[davidw@copper.net (David J. Windisch)]

Tom, N4KG wrote above about 2L wire inverted-vee beams.

For the VSWR-fetishists, my FD version, making the DE a folded-dipole, and
feeding with a 75-ohm Q-section, gets the feed-Z down to around 60 ohms.

Wonder if that lowers losses, as well?

How 'bout making the reflector a folded-dipole, too?
