[TowerTalk] HTFA and Reality

[Kjeld Holm]

Gentlemen:

I am using HFTA in planning for an array for 10 to 20 m. Due to zone
restrictions I am modelling a lot of solutions - normal and crazy ones among
each other. As I may end up being restricted to a top point of 26 feet I
modelled a 4 stack of 2 elements yagis at 17/20/23/26 feet. According to
HTFA this should work fine on all three bands (less performance on 20 m of
course). But I do not believe in such a close spacing in the real world. Any
comments would be appreciated.

PS I am located on a 190 feet hill top with rather steep sides.

Some months ago I had a question about a low yagi for 40 m and I would like
to thank every body who told me that the only way to find out anything was
to use HFTA.
