New dipole I discovered


looks like a 1/8 wave 2 meter design.

the end points look like they are well suspended, But I'm not certain how clean the signal is to the feed point.
your thoughts??
we need more pichers camera man went to sleep after one shot
you call yourselves antenna gurus need shots of the frontal lobes and 2 main directors to properly analyze the pattern produced by this antenna design it does however give a new meaning to standing wave ratio feedpointimpedance and skin effect

VSWR would depend on the angle of the received input!!

This new dipole antenna may just be a great receive antenna or just another dummy load per say.
 
I had two of those over the years. Both where high strung and didn't receive worth a Dam. I gave one to a neighbor and a stranger stole the other one + all my gear and the shack. I 'm still laughin at his stupidity he got a real mud duck in a drafty shack with bad plumbing.
