I found LB to be a little enigmatic. But so what? His forte' was modelling. He had all the professional licenses and did commercial modeling for some number of customers, including a lot of unheralded primary work for the well-regarded Force 12 antennas. He did not do a lot of on-field verification himself, which would explain why some fairly suspect material remains. I'm fairly sure he did not have the health for the hard outdoor work that validation requires, though he never complained. But all in all, I'm certainly better off for him than without him. RIP, and let detractors look to their own assumptions closets. I'm completely sure LB has far fewer detractors than I do. I have a series of posts with him about the Wouff Houng which I treasure.
