V-Stack UHF Hourglass-Loop + 15RR UHF Vertically Stacked Hourglass-Loops with 15 Reflector Rods analyzed using 4nec2 where nikiml's Python Optimization Scripts were used to Optimize dimensions of the HVH (Hollands Vertical Harness) and Separation between Hourglass-Loops.
UHF Raw Gain = 12.6 to 13.7 dBi, F/B & F/R Ratio Min = 18.3 dB and SWR (300-ohms) under 2.8. Beamwidth = 60-degrees was CONSTANT vs Frequency.
Dimensions of HVH wires were determined using nikiml's Python Optimization Scripts: VS = VS=17.5-in = Vertical Stacking Distance (Center-To-Center). VS/2 = 8.75-in, Length of Harness wires from Feedpoint to Center of each Hourglass-Loop. Diagonal = 1.0-in, Length from Harness Wires to each Hourglass-Loop Feedpoint. Hw = 1.125-in (may round to 1.5-in), Xh = -0.5-in = Harness X-Axis Separation from Hourglass-Loops. TOTAL HARNESS WIRE LENGTH (2 required) = 20.5-in = 2x8.75+2x1.0+2x0.5 (for eyelets)
