Re: [IRCA] KAZ versus Pennant/Flag

["R. Colin Newell" <coffeecanuck@xxxxxxxxx>]

My Flags are generally 27' H By 45-55' Rectangles with the remotely
variable termination attached to the centre of the vertical span facing the
direction I wish to reject -
and the FLG100 head amp is located in the Centre of the vertical span
facing the DX.

I am assuming that this is the traditional configuration of a Flag or
"Pennant" antenna - If I'm wrong I stand corrected.

My FLG100 might not be exactly in the centre part of the DX Facing vertical
span NOR is the termination always dead centre -- AND it does seem to work
well with the variable remote termination (VACTROL) closer to one corner -
making it a SUPER LOOP is guess or a CORNER FED.

Either way - works well in a decent sized sub-urban back yard.

Good learned discussion on the merits of each - I am very glad I asked! :-)
