Jack Over the next couple of days, I'll take some careful
Jack measurements of the antenna, its supports, and the distance of
Jack everything from the back of the house. The house was built in
Jack the 1940s and was constructed with wood and concrete with a
Jack stucco finish.

The only thing I'm missing because I didn't think to measure it was
how long the individual dipole legs are. However, they started off as
the normal lengths for a full-length 40m dipole and inverted vees for
20m and 10m, as mentioned in the page. Tomorrow I'll go out and
measure the wires and update the text and the relevant drawing with
that information.

Tam, if you do model this antenna, I'd really appreciate it if you
shared the model with me as I've always wanted to learn more about
nec4 and friends but never really had the ability to get past the
punch-card mindset of the input files, and having my own antenna
modeled would probably do it.

Jack.
