Hi Clare,
Here is the link to the "tape measure beam" which I built for the fox
hunt. I didn't have time to adjust it for SWR before the hunt, but it
seems to work well otherwise. After the hunt, I also noticed that the
element spacing was not exactly as spelled out on the plan. Oh, well,
another ham project for the list.
The front-to-back ratio is advertised as greater than 50 db. So I was
checking for the null to provide direction. The web site also has a
link to an antenna analysis program and the file for the antenna per the
plans.

Please let me know if I can be of any help.
Sincerely,
