The Triangular Array was as effective as the Beverages in 100% of the cases in which it was tested, and often it was better (if for no other reason that it was switchable). I used 23? verticals on homemade mast stubs with standard copper tubing as a ground rod, painted the verticals a flat black, and put the array out on a section of lawn.

And then mentioned it again, and maybe again. So, I sat down and drew up a schematic for the Triangle array which I shared with him. He was very happy after constructing this array. I decided that I already had a working schematic I should go ahead and produce the array although I was not convinced it would be popular. The acceptance of this product to date has amazed me. My favorite comment about the array is that one can tune in a BC station and rotate the direction control and often listen to 3 or 4 different BC stations in different directions. I almost did not produce the triangle array which it turns out would have been a big mistake.

I started out with a 4el with 60? spacing but some constraints on real estate led me to back off to the 3el. Though I still use the 3el and am happy with it I have more flexibility with real estate these days and plan next summer to either move back to the 4el or make the big jump to a 4-8Pro or a Hi-Z 8. I plan to leave the 3el in place and do some A/B?ing between it and whatever I put up, so that should be interesting! 73, Mike, W1MU From: Hi-zreceivingarraydiscussions on behalf of "John Harden, D.M.D." Reply-To: Hi-Z Receiving Array Discussions Date: Sunday, January 7, 2018 at 4:13 PM To: Hi-Z Receiving Array Discussions Subject: Re: [Hi-zreceivingarraydiscussions] new product release.

I never would have guessed it would make lowband operations so manageable. It really is a work of art, a game changer. I started off with one of your 4el systems but went to the 3el because of some issues on my lot and lawn, but I have been very pleased. This summer I plan to get back to a 4el or 8el but the 3el has been great. Way back in my youth I worked for one of our intelligence agencies and used the AN/FLR-9 ?Wullenweber? receive array and gained a lot of respect for these vertical arrays ? you?ve done a GREAT job making all this stuff practical, simple, and affordable. Looking forward to trying out one of your new controllers. Right now I am using Green Heron Everywhere. 73, Mike, W1MU From: Hi-zreceivingarraydiscussions on behalf of Lee STRAHAN Reply-To: Hi-Z Receiving Array Discussions Date: Sunday, January 7, 2018 at 4:33 PM To: Hi-Z Receiving Array Discussions Subject: Re: [Hi-zreceivingarraydiscussions] new product release. Hi Mike, I have a personal Ham friend in Spokane Wa who casually mentioned to me that he simply did not have enough room for the original 4-square. And then mentioned it again, and maybe again. So, I sat down and drew up a schematic for the Triangle array which I shared with him. He was very happy after constructing this array. I decided that I already had a working schematic I should go ahead and produce the array although I was not convinced it would be popular. The acceptance of this product to date has amazed me. My favorite comment about the array is that one can tune in a BC station and rotate the direction control and often listen to 3 or 4 different BC stations in different directions. I almost did not produce the triangle array which it turns out would have been a big mistake.

I can attest to the effectiveness of the triangular array with the 50? spacing. I did extensive A/B testing on 80m over three seasons, comparing it to a 450? 2-wire Beverage running NE/SW. The Triangular Array was as effective as the Beverages in 100% of the cases in which it was tested, and often it was better (if for no other reason that it was switchable). I used 23? verticals on homemade mast stubs with standard copper tubing as a ground rod, painted the verticals a flat black, and put the array out on a section of lawn. It was invisible and it worked well.
