Hi Doug,
I doubt that I have greater understanding of antennas than you do, but I'll
give your question a shot. Actually, I have been working on circularly
polarizing the ARROWS with the WRAPS lately, a work still in progress but
almost complete. So I am throwing out the draft information I
Jacob, for what it is worth, I built the 'eggbeater' and it was so 'noisy'
tossed it. Built the dual Moxon out of brass tubing from the hobby shop and
just love it !!! (I'm a big Moxon fan as you can tell)
The Moxi works for me. But, since you already have the KLM's, not sure you
will do better

I wish you the best of luck Jacob with your setup. I did quite

Some maritime TVRO antennas used a mechanical scan at the feed point. A motor
would either rotate an attenuator disk or offset the feed in a circular motion.
A resolver kept track of the feed location in relation to received signal
strength. The antenna was then slewed in the direction of best

True, but since the QST article mentioned a phasing line, I was trying to
figure out his design.

Sounds like the QHTennas, made by N4QH. Reviewed in QST in 2005, then he
stopped producing them just a few months later.
Near as I could figure out, they are a conventional turnstile design, but
with the 2 dipoles separated by the length of the phasing line, and no
reflector.

I would suggest that you don't need a phasing line if the dipoles are spaces a
quarter wave and that both are fed by
equal length cables.

Looking at the pictures, it appears that the dipoles are separated by about
1/4 wave in free space, which is physically longer than a

It surprises me that nobody appears to sell commercially made Lindenblads.
