Kevin,

I liked your 4 square idea. Never actually used one myself. You should try
to get ahold of VE1ZZ (packet or telephone only)
He's at ve1dxc node. This guy has a MONSTER signal on top band and knows a
thing or two about homebrewing.
I'm sure there are also many other REAL good sources of 4-sq info on the
net..
ON4UN books (I have 2 of them, but not the time to give any advice really)
Also the K8VR(is that the call?) designs from the handbooks look good for
sloping dipoles oriented to give
gain (you'd have to see the pix to get the full gist of it)

So one guy gave you a little criticism. Get over it!

Read and ask!

73, de Mike Ve9AA (used to be on 160m.....not currently)
