Those antennas show excellent design and construction skills... They
can't possibly work when they are that perfect... Where is the
raggedy piece of a beer can, hose clamped to one side for tuning? How
come the coils are symmetrical... Jeez, any ham worthy of the name
could take one of those and drive over it a couple of times so it
looks like a "real" antenna...

Anyway, thanks for the url, I enjoyed perusing the pictures...

Darn things remind of things out of a 1950's grade B science fiction
flick! grin

However, as you say, he has done a nice job in construction of them.
