I've said it wasn't a jpole for years now...  With antenna modeling,it's starting to sink in.


I should model a JPole as well.


I'll have to fudge with the program to get the sigma with different sleve lengths...  I tried it, and it made it look like a friggin dipole!  I reloaded the antenna, tried it again, and got the same results...  I know it's me, and I can't get the source right...  As I said, play with the load and source, and you can REALLY accomplish amazing things with that antenna.


The matching network sucks.  A gamma can lose up to 6 dB.
