[TowerTalk] Perpendicular Delta Loops

[Dennis W0JX via TowerTalk <towertalk@contesting.com>]

Rich: 
Check the patterns for an 80 meter Delta Loop hanging from a 78 foot tower. If 
you feed it at the bottom center for horizontal polarization, you will have a 
sensational cloud warmer and a poor DX antenna. This antenna should be feed 1/4 
wave from the apex for vertical polarization.In that manner, the pattern is 
almost circular with about 1 to 2 db favoring the plane of the wires,

You don't need the second delta loop.
