[VHFcontesting] VHFcontesting Digest, Vol 140, Issue 6

[David Muller]

Just  sent an update on Mini-Horse antenna.  Thought I was replying to recent post,
but saw after hitting "send" that it was not.

However, have thought of using them as stacked 3 elements on 6m or 2m.
I could manage 8 foot separation on pushed up mast--one band--as in sprint.

I recommend over a Moxon, which I have also used.  Easier design, and stable construction
without the gap alignment issue.  Only thing it lack is the sharp F/B notch, if that matters.
