Subject: Folded 1/4 Wave Antenna
To: ham-ant@ucsd.edu
In a recently marketed FM Band Antenna ( RF Limited High Q 6500, see latest issue
of Popular Mechanics) the antenna element is described as a " folded 1/4 wave that
is omnidirectional when laid flat and highly directional when turned 90 degrees
and set on its side."
I am familiar with folded dipoles. Can anyone describe folded 1/4 waves or
provide a reference to read on the subject?
Would anyone have purchased the above antenna and could give a brief review of
performance?

Subject: what's a CACUS H (2-meters)?
To: ham-ant@ucsd.edu
Can anyone tell me about the CACUS H antenna? It looks like a
jpole but it's in the shape of an H. Some of the local hams
are passing around some hand-drawn plans for one for 2 meters.
I can't find out where it originated. I'd like a reference
to it and some information about what it is (how it works)
and how well does it perform (either theoretical or empirical
results).
Thanks.
