Subject: Re: Topband: feeding phased verticals at half wave spacing
Hello Dale,
The ARRL Antenna Book that I have (19th edition) has the plots you are
looking for, and they are in agreement with what I obtain using EZNEC for
two vertical radiators spaced 1/2 wavelength apart. (if you
And there's an expanded write-up about phased verticals in the new, 5th
edition, c. 2011.

1/4 wave verticals spaced half-wave apart fed out-of-phase gives you a
end-fire pattern - the same verticals fed in-phase gives you a broad-side
pattern.

Gentlemen:
I have been told repeatedly that phased verticals should be spaced 1/4
wavelength apart. Ok, I am willing to accept that.
My question is if you have verticals that are 1/2 wave apart, would it not
give some pattern, whatever that should be?
If you were looking for an endfire
