Topband: no response to query: feeding phased verticals at halfwave spacing

[ZR]

Well first of all dont expect instant gratification on here as there are 
usually delays in a post appearing.

As far as the question you can phase them to get figure 8 patterns broadside 
and end fire.

I had a pair of 80M 1/4 wave spaced 1/4 wave also fed as 1/2 waves on 40M at 
a prior QTH.
