[TowerTalk] 30m 3 ele parasitic vertical antenna

I was trying to come up with a fairly easy to build 30m antenna that I 
could point at Europe that would have a bit more gain than my dipole at 
70 ft.

I have not been able to find much on verticals with parasitic elements 
so I am curious if anyone has tried this.  I was thinking of  a 3 ele 
design with a total "boom" of around 22ft or 34 ft, based off the 3 ele 
beam in the Antenna book.

I was trying to avoid any phasing or switching.  I am open to other 
suggestions as well.

Your feedback is appreciated.
