Default Segmentation question, + Eznec

Recently got W4RNL's collection of .EZ
models. and many were written for more advanced
versions than my Basic EZ (limited to 500
Segments) And tho, when you reduce those segments
to the limits of 500, And seem to work fine,have 2
DUMB query's about them .

1), when looking at MOST models, they end in a
ODD number of segments, say I reduce those segs
from 19 to 16, for a given wire,,does this make
all that much difference in the calculations?, and

2) as I have gone from ODD number's to an EVEN
numbers, is THIS anything to worry about? Even
with the Driven Element (which, as I see it, would
place the feedpoint (you would expect 50 % off the
ends,IF you use Even # segments, what happens
when the feed is, say 9 (or 4-1/2) segments, at 50
% feed point ?

But other folks might also be curious
about these effects, tho from what I've seen, they
appear minimal. Your thoughts, Please! Jim NN7K
