Hi Art,

You've repeated my name more times than Gauss.
That sure gives it a lift. ;-)

Is there any other academics out there that can help me out as well as
clarifying what I say for better understanding.

The clarification I offered was:
Throw away 4 of the 5 wires and you improve
both the gain and the match.

If you dismiss this as drivel (a perverse contempt in this forum
dedicated to gain and matching) then there is no clarification to be
gained.

As Dave pointed out, submit to a judged journal and show us the
citation when it publishes.
