CM-4251 Parabolic+FBmod+9-El LPDA
CM4251 Parabolic Reflector with 4-Wires added to Reflector (FBmod) and 9-Element LPDA
(Log Periodic Dipole Array) Feed analyzed using 4nec2.

CM4251 2-Bay Feed is replaced by 9-Element LPDA, see fol. analysis:

Note uniformity of Raw Gain with small loss at higher freqs, low SWR and excellent
F/B and F/R Ratios across entire UHF Band.

When 9-El LPDA is used with CM4251, the small loss in Gain with frequency stayed about
the same with a small improvement in SWR.  

However LPDA's excellent F/B & F/R Ratios were reduced across all freq, esp. on lower channels.
Hence this reduction is attributed to inadequacies in the CM4251's Reflector.
