1. A traveling wire antenna which comprises:

  • a substantially planar ground plane;

    at least one insulator;

    a flat strip-like radiator having a width and a length spaced above the ground plane, the plane in which the flat strip-like radiator lies being substantially parallel to the ground plane, the flat strip-like radiator being electrically isolated from the ground plane and supported by the insulator, the width of the flat-strip like radiator being substantially perpendicular to the ground plane, the radiator comprising a plurality of arms sequentially joined at their ends to define an angular relationship between adjacent arms, the length of the arms and the angles at which the arms are joined to one another, together provide a desired radiation pattern; and

    means for feeding power to the radiator.
