KK4OBI Bent Dipoles


This is the 4NEC2 antenna bend model for: Vertical V-Dipoles

To use this model:
4NEC2 is an NEC2, NEC4, Windows based antenna modeler and optimizer by Arie Voors.
It is available free of charge at: www.qsl.net/4nec2/


CM Standardized center-fed vertical V-dipole model for comparison studies
CM #14 AWG. Feedpoint 1/2 wavelength over ground at 28.4 mc. 
CM Fixed geometry so only 1 segment in middle as feed point.  DO NOT CHANGE!
CM Variable angle from vertical
