No Ed you're wrong. It has panned out.  The one that replaces 1/4 WL antennas 
are installed more of them being built in Europe.  The whole story on the CFA 
and one that goes in ones attic are covered in AntenneX.  Part 1 can be 
brought up as a visitor to the AntenneX Web Site.  You can't be too critical 
without doing your home work and waiting for someone else to give you the 
details which could be another year--for his work.  I just found a big 
article on it on another Web Site.  When I get time I will build 1, 2 or 3. 

It was announced a year ago in AntenneX and World Radio and other mag finally 
got up to speed.  QST probably never will.  All TTer's should get on AntenneX 
and review all the articles.  K7GCO
