    Default Home made BEAM looking for QST artical on this antenna

    I'm looking for a Antenna that I saw in QST magazine I think back 2004-2006. It is a 2 element beam( maybe QUAD) made out of PCV pipes (tubes) I HAVE looked in the QST ARCIEVES (SP) but have not found it yet IF I remember the antenna looked like a long V with a 18 inch support in the middle but I can't remember this is the best I can do

    Are you perhaps talking about a delta loop beam?

    Plug that into your search engine and see what comes up.

    I found lots of them for HF.

    When you wrote
    looked like a long V with a 18 inch support in the middle
    Did you perhaps mean 18 feet?
