Andy, I have modeled and built such a quad on a 24 foot boom with
equidistant spacing between the elements. The model was optimized for
maximum forward gain and a reasonable match to 50 ohms. I took whatever
F/B I got. The match is skewed toward the low end of the bands because
I work primarily CW and DX SSB. Consequently, on some wide bands, e.g.
15M and 10M, the SWR is high at the high end of the SSB portion. If
you're interested in my dimensions and data, I can e-mail you a Lotus
tabulation with all the essential information.
73, Joe
