mine is pretty close to a true quad. cut for 80m. fed with 450 ladder line 
to a tuner. i like it. it gets kinda touchy on the higher bands. but for 80 
and 40, it's the best thing i have ever used. lowest corner is about 15 to 
20 foot off the ground. highest is about 45. 
 
i agree, put it up and go with it. you'll soon learn which direction it 
"hears" the best.

 FWIW, I'm feeding with about 60 feet of window line to a 4:1 balun and 
 then to about 80 feet of Coax.  My plan is to replace a good bit more 
 of the coaxial line with the window line when I get around to it. 
 
 My assumption is that this set up would be best for multi-band 
 operation.
