Should I believe this model?


Actually, that's pretty good. It's not uncommon to see quite good models


The only other thing that worries me is the placement of the feedline.
I plan run it at right angles to the vertical as much as possible.
After I built my 5-element yagi for MURS, I found that the SWR was
affected by the placement of the feedline. As such, I would like to
simulate its presence with NEC-2. Any hints about how to do this?

Thanks,
