   Holger Granholm to Roy Witt

   In a message dated 06-02-14, Roy Witt said to Holger Granholm:   
      
   Good morning Roy,   
      
   RW>Which doesn't speak to the fact that the LPYA isn't really a LP antenna,   
   RW>but a yagi with a driven section like the LPDA and 23 parasitic elements   
   RW>like a yagi. A true LPDA would have 27 active elements with no parsitic   
   RW>elements.   
      
   The number of parasitic or active elements are a moot point in the   
   discussion! KLM makes log-cell fed yagis with different number of   
   elements. Most of them do use a LP fed cell of four driven elements   
   to broaden the frequency range (bandpass).   
      
   The antenna Tom has is apparently based on the same design philosophy   
   but instead of parasitic elements the number of phased driven elements   
   are increased.   
      
   Have a nice day,   
      
   Holger
