Some of us remember Wilson antennas. Wilson sold aluminum and if their
antennas had any significant gain you were fortunate.

## Wilson interlaced arrays never did work. The higher freq portion was always a dud.
They didnt use software to design em..fubar,   nor did they factor in the myriad of swages. 
On their  20-15 duobanders, the 15 was a dud.   On their 15-10  duobanders, the 10 was a dud. 

##  If you  want a real laff, model some of these old yagis in modern software.   Including telrex,
with their equal spaced eles.   The results were none too good.
