Hi Kaz,
Are the Double Corner Fed Flags the same as two Corner Fed Loops? What is the spacing between the flags. I went the Corner Fed Loop options due to the space and tree-mast combinations that I had in my yard. Thanks for all of the great antenna development work you have done!

My new Double Corner Fed Flag antenna is up
but needs some more and very
careful dimensioning I think. A huge
willow tree isn't making this easy. It
has more signal (EZNEC says 7 dB) than
a DKAZ requiring the same space and
height since the two loops are
rectangles rather than triangles and
therefore have more area underneath
them. However, I am not getting as good
F/B as I'd like or as I could get from
the DKAZ, but it seems adequate for
sunrise work to the west.
LSR here was 11:20 today so I started
DXing just a few minutes prior to
1100 in hopes of Tonga but little trace
and bad slop from NM. Over to 1098
and V7AB had audio and did so much of
the time til about 1131:30 when it
seemed it was cut. Music, mostly island
mx and ancr in island lang at
times. Bothered by slop from KKLL on
early and even KEXS running day rig at
night clobbering KAAY 1090.
I had weak audio at times from 4QR 612
and 2NR 738 but 702 was more
interesting usually with 2BL which is
just a bit low of 702 sometimes
audible but often mixed with NZ which
is almost on 702 and had mx and a
different ancr. NZ rose atop around
1125 for a bit. A third considerably
weaker carrier is a bit above 702.
My apologies for sending the again, but
Gary hasn't learned to keep off the
keyboard.
