The zenith pattern of the antenna is a figure-eight with maximum signal intensity along the horizon. An electrical isolating section is incorporated into the feed system to provide a balanced feed to the radiating elements and to assure large decoupling from the feed line. A dc static drain path is provided across the feedpoint.
