    Excellent,  thank you! Too bad it took so long for YouTube algorithm to figure out I was on the lookout for it.

    I really like this video. The idea of showing exactly how the physical changes to an antenna affect its performance are fascinating to me. I am considering getting my ham license just for that reason.

    Steve: Thanks for this. I have been puzzling over much of this (mostly with tuning 2-ele quads) for decades, and this is a real help. --NT0Z

    Thank you! Just what I've been searching for in tuning my home brewed 6M 4el yagi.

    Outstanding as usual Steve, thank you. I have been experimenting with 40m 1/4 wave vertical paratisic array antennas for about year now. A few months ago I built a phased parasitic 40m 1/4w array with a reflectors and directors (6ele). This video is a big help on understanding and improving that.

    Amazing presentation. Very understandable.  You have the unique talent of instructional organization with a clear voice.  I love learning anything involving transmission line theory.  It's absolutely fascinating and I've learned more about tuning parasitic elements in five minutes than I ever knew existed.  5-stars.

    I really like the paper-hand reveal technique. Great video and info as well, thank you

    Very clear Steve, you're a good teacher!  The little antenna in your shack brings it to life.  Cool!  73, Gary  ZL2iFB

    Very good presentation, indeed. I learned a good deal.

    I have had more fun the last couple weeks trying to replicate some of these results…and I’m getting there! The nano van has shown my Real R point to be much higher on the 40m yagi…great videos.
