Yes and no.....
Computer modeling has improved antenna design tremendously, and that is
definitely new. There are all sorts of new variations:
* G0KSC (and others) yagi designs
* Broadband aluminum half-wave vertical designs from GAP
* Broadband dipoles including the OCFD (look for an upcoming book)
* Improved baluns with much better characteristics
* Beverage on ground
to name a few off the top of my head.
