Good morning!

In the interest of full disclosure, the actual design of this antenna was
performed by Joe Johnson, K3RR.   He and I are listed as the co-winners of
the antenna contest (80-10m), but he designed and built the array, which
works on the 80-meter band.    Joe is retired from the FCC, and lives just
west of Gettysburg in south-central PA.    I constructed a computer model of
the antenna (using EZNEC) and ran several simulations of the array, in order
to optimize its performance and to create the plots of the radiation
patterns.

Thanks and 73,
Al
K3LC
