Could anyone model a pair of delta loop elements feed the same way as a 
 ZL special?  I am using a two element delta loop (DE and RE) parasitic 
 beam and wonder if connecting the two with a crossed phasing line 
 similar to a ZL special would produce more gain, F-B and front to 
 side.  It is for 75 meters with the apex up at about 100 feet and the 
 bottom horizontal leg is about 3 meters off the ground.  The spacing 
 for the ZL special is about 1/8 wavelength and the phasing is about 
 135 degrees.  Also what would be the input impedance if fed for 
 horizontal polarization in the middle of the bottom leg?

Thanks in advance for any responses.
