It seems a number of people have had a go at optimizing the original quagi design...

I think AA1ZB has ignored the insulated wire used in the original design and has used
too few segments in his model....I haven't looked at the Italian versions carefully.
 
I used to use them on 432 and 1296.  The 432 quagi has been replaced by a 10 element 
Yagi of my own design and the 1296 quagi by a looper at home and a WA5VJB cheap 
Yagi in my Rover setup.
