Even if you have a scheme that successfully drives the elements
in quadrature, the problem is that quadrature is not necessarily
the optimum phasing.

I then bring in the other three element and enter sources of 0 degrees 2
elements at -90 and the front element at -180 when I check the resonance of
the array the frequency drops far below 3.795.
- at this point I would add that I was modelling a reduces height element of
41.5ft with 4 11ft 10
For many years I have run 4sq on both 80m and 40m - I currently run an 8
element vertical array for 80m and the centre mast is a top loaded vertical 85
foot vertical.
When resonating my 4sq verticals I have always disconnected three and resonated
one vertical at a time to the target frequenc
