Re: [amsat-bb] Quad Antennas?

["Gary \"Joe\" Mayfield" <gary_mayfield@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Years ago in QST there was an article about some circular quagis.  I built
several sets of them.  The 2 meter antenna was an okay to good performer,
but I never got the 70 cm antenna to load well with the circular polarizing
balun scheme.  The Mesilla Valley Radio Club used them as W5XR on field day
a couple times.  They used wood booms and proved to be too fragile for my
last couple of QTHs.
