     Since this is the topic of some discussion among antenna theorists, 
let's 
 let them battle it out while we use TowerTalk for its intended use - 
 PRACTICAL HF antenna and tower construction discussions. Tnx.

Without theory there won't be any practical antennas to create for the 
appliance operators to use.  Many "questions of theory" are asked by the 
appliance operators on antennas, rotators and towers so I'd suggest leaving 
it be.  99.9% of us are interested in using the most effective antennas and 
towers which involves all aspects of this so-called "dirty theory" and not 
selling parts for towers.  I'd suggest a vote be taken as to "it's intended 
use."    k7gco.
