For additional information read

and look at Fig 22-7 page 10 of 20 Radiation Pattern of the 1 1/2
turn 1,25 wavelenght Quadrifilar Antennas.
Tnx, Dom for that info.
I received a number of requests for quadfilar information, again.

and see the five files starting with the pic Quad2.4gigs
Be very precise with the measurements, particularly on the 435...
I scaled it from the 2 meter, made a slight measuring error on the
driven filar, shortened it by 1/4" and the swr went from 3 to 1 to 1.6 to 1....
And use the BEST "N" connectors and coax that you can find, the most
expensive part of the antenna....
