     When Paolo, I2UIY, was in town for the WRTC in 1990, he showed us a
picture of a ten meter array in a diamond configuration that was used by one
of the big Italian multi-ops.  It's just like your H arrangement, just turned
90 degrees.  He claimed that is was a terrific system.  This is mechanically
simpler since you can stack 2 antennas vertically and then you only need one
horizontal mount with no additional vertical pipes.  Might be worth a try.

    So people starting to think about 10 meters, eh?  Any pent-up contesting
energy out there?  Pray for sunspots.
