Most of the references you found most likely are giving you correct and
accurate numbers. The "ART" of antenna design is just that an art. When
you workup an antenna the variables are element length and element
spacing. The art is in adjusting these variables to achieve the results
you are looking for. I will not attempt to describe the iterations you
must go through to get it right, that's what the various texts are for.
Get the ARRL or RSGB books, either or both. The ARRL Antenna Book is one
of the best.

Good luck

i dont know why you cant seem to find what your looking for other than
your not wording the search right



Finding them is not the problem. Finding two that come even close to
giving the same dimensions is the problem (apart from ones that are
obvioulsy direct copies of a design on another site.)

I have already been to all the sites you listed and numerous others.
In fact the first one you listed is the same as the first one I
listed. The second one is no good because you have to be a member to
access any details. The third one is a quagi not a yagi and the 4th
one is one of those funny bow-tie types.
