Hi Jim

The antenna geometry indicates that it should perform similar to a Waller
Flag *under the same conditions*.

The perform  under same conditions is expected, however the WF RDF is
between 11.5db  to 12 db. How that compares with a 8.5db  RDF antenna?

I would say two antennas with the same RDF should perform similar.

The WF is a different antenna, it's a rotatable  pair of loaded loops. Each
loop is open and loaded with a resistor.
