[TowerTalk] "Wind Load" "Wind Area"

[Pete Smith]

Bob, you're asking questions that have incredibly complicated answers.  I really don't think an open-ended reflector query is the best way to improve your knowledge.  I think you need to do some reading, perhaps starting with a copy of Dave Leeson's "Physical Design of Yagi Antennas", published by ARRL. Unfortunately it is out of print, but you can probably borrow a copy locally.
