ABSTRACT:
Stationary antenna structures are disclosed including horizontally disposed elongated members (12) which are streamlined in the horizontal plane to reduce windloading. In the illustrated embodiments these members have a curved upper surface and a flat lower surface (FIG. 3). Vertically disposed members (14) are provided with a circular cross section since the point on the compass from which the wind originates will vary.
