Hello Everybody,

Attached you can find a document i have written.

With this i hope there migth be people who get perhaps more insigth in all those different plots we often see on the forum

It is also done cause often people tend to have a "wrong" impression of what the antenna is doing and what is important.

It contains perhaps for some "ligth" material but it migth be very usefull for those who are not "there" yet.

Things like: gain/front to back/-3dB beamwidth / elevation plot/ azimuth plot / and take off anlge are more or less covered.

Its a word file and im already tired of it so i havent taken a closer look at it. My english isnt good and i do make other mistakes aswell form time to time lol

So Please do be so kind and adjust or add to it if needed, or let me know what needs to be applied.

Kind regards,

Henry HPSD
