Topband: Counterpoise very interresting

[Guy Olinger K2AV]

I found LB to be a little enigmatic. But so what?

His forte' was modelling.  He had all the professional licenses and
did commercial modeling for some number of customers, including a lot
of unheralded primary work for the well-regarded Force 12 antennas. He
did not do a lot of on-field verification himself, which would explain
why some fairly suspect material remains.  I'm fairly sure he did not
have the health for the hard outdoor work that validation requires,
though he never complained.  But all in all, I'm certainly better off
for him than without him.  RIP, and let detractors look to their own
assumptions closets.  I'm completely sure LB has far fewer detractors
than I do.  I have a series of posts with him about the Wouff Houng
which I treasure.

73, Guy.
