The array:  Broadside/end-fire four-element vertical receiving array has 5/8 
wavelength broadside spacing and 1/8 wavelength end-fire spacing.  Short, 25 
foot, elements are matched to RG-6 with a network of resistance and 
inductance.



The terrain:  Hillside initiated elevation change of 50 feet between the 
broadside elements and an elevation change of about two feet between the 
end-fire elements.



The question:  How do the described conditions change the array with respect 
to the flat terrain EZNEC model?



Thanks for your feedback,

Larry, W6UB
