[Towertalk] RE: 40M 4 Sq vs. 2 el Yagi at 70 ft

[ve2dc@rac.ca (Mel Martin (VE2DC))]

I only had a 2 el vert. array vs a 2 el shorty at 150'... And there was
absolutlely no comparison... Vertical arrays are great if you can't put
up a horizontal beam... ie 80 and 160... (for most of us anyway)... But
a 2el shortened yagi on 40M is a very effective antenna.

but I think you'd rather have the beam @70', I know I would. Maybe
someday.
