I have read that the real gain advantages are not realized until the two quads in phase are ≥ 1 wavelength apart. So I am wondering, relative to what? The outside loop wires, the inside wires, one outside and one inside wire or the average-center of the individual quads?
Hi Justin, thank you very much for the Quad Videos! A lot of informations about your designs and your 2-boom-construction-solution. A stack of short quads (2...5el) will be a good solution for contesting (look at the yagi-stacks of 5p5t, dr9a, ol3z, k1whs or k5qe). I think I will give a stack of you 3el-LFA-Qs on 2m-contesting a trial. The only problem is to buy your antennas in Germany after the brexit ;-) Good luck, thanks for your work and see you in the next video! vy 73 Gerald, DL1RG
Hi Justin,I have constructed 3 element twin QUAD using conventional design and using nonmetallic boom and supports.I'm interested in using your design,for the driven element,can it be tuned for an impedance of 50 ohms?
Hi Justin, nice antenna work, especially with stack experiments. I'd be interested in the physical element construction details, and wind load/survival characteristics for 28MHz. Subscribed to help you get over the 1k sub mark! Best 73, Jeff ex 9H1EL
Amen justin ..its justin 5180 Oklahoma rinning the custom lfaq rigid u built me its the king of the band out eastern Oklahoma..love it ...
Just finished this three part series. I did not realize that quads were so versatile. Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience!
Glad you like them!
I just watched this series again. What valuable information! Thanks for sharing this. You've taught me a great deal and given me a lot to think about!
Glad it was helpful!

I just released another article in DUBUS magazine this week.
@@hamradioguy-g0ksc96 Justin, thanks in advance! What will be the content of your new article in DUBUS? 73 Gerald, DL1RG

we spoke on Email right?
Yes Justin,😀
Another great video, im going to try and biuld a four element for 10 metres.
