O I C. I guess I have never seen dipole arrays in a horixontal array before. I didn't know that would work.

The traditional in-line folded dipole arrays work muy bueno... (very well). Just the dual side-by-side FD arrays are the train wreck (in what appear to be the 4 and 8 bay assemblies). s. > "NORM KNAPP" <nkn...@...> wrote: > > The db/Andrew/Comscope folded dipoles do not have this > problem?
