[TowerTalk] Antenna Modeling

[Dan Bookwalter]

Jim
Oh I fully understand,  but , I am not currently in a position to do that ... when I get back to a point where I can put up a real antenna(s),  I am sure I will ask these questions ...but , I still like just winging something in the air and letting er'rip so to speak... 
My opinion may be out dated , but , I still maintain we have lost some of that...

My view is completely the opposite -- to me, ham radio is studying the 
fundamentals and using that knowledge to build our stations, including 
antennas, that work better. Wandering around in the dark is not part of 
my view of ham radio.
