I would certainly like to try the "meander" aerial mentioned in technical
topics in the Rad Com this month. It consists of a quarter wave of wire,
grounded at one end, running up and down between a high support line and one
near the ground until the whole length is used up. This "curtain" is then
folded round into a circular form looking like a tall thin bird-cage. A
gamma feed is used at one of the low points near the feed end.
Sadly, I only had 300mtrs of wire with me!
Perhaps next time....
Sound interesting, I think besides me a lot of non-RSGB members in this
reflector would like to get some more info on that antenna.
