Default Yagi Hairpin Match

I'm a newbie in HAM and would like to build my own 430mhz 3 elements Yagi
but don't have enough information. Although I have the ARRL Handbook and
ARRL Antenna book. But, I do have some questions about that.



1. Detail information about the hairpin. match (i.e. length, the distance
between the 2 legs and the location to solder)



2. The feedline should be even or odd 1/4 wavelength?



3. When solder the feedline to the hairpin, what's the location?



4. If I don't have the SWR meter, is it still possible to build the Yagi?



I did the search for a month on the net and newsgroup, but still don't have
any luck to give me the answers. Thanks for any comment in advance!!!
