Well Dave,
 
After listening to almost 20 years of such silly assertions--despite 'acid  
tests' of chamber measurements; 'acid tests' of simulations; 'acid tests' 
of  direct comparisons; 'acid tests' of live demoes (including Dayton, ARRL  
National, RCA, several IEEE societies and many others); 'acid tests' of peer 
 reviewed publications; 'acid tests' of validation by researchers in over 
40  countries and over 1500 articles,'acid tests' of being a keynote at an  
international conference of engineers, mathematicians and  scientists;  and 
yes, 'acid tests' of on the air comparisons, I have  come to one  conclusion 
when it comes to fractal antenna technology and the  persiflage of 'just 
another folding method':
 
Some hams must be on acid... ;-)  
 
Trippy!
 
Go take some bicarb of soda.
 
I, on the other hand, am going to enjoy myself and execute my Part 97  
mission.
 
You should try it. It's fun.
 
73,
Chip W1YW

edly I'm  not a believer in fractal antennas.  They don't really 
offer anything  over any other folded designs and are clumsier  
mechanically.
