"Put another way, should the overall length of the antenna be 102` or 102` 3 1/3`` ?" An example may be found in microwaves. The RSGB 3rd edition of "VHF-UHF Manual" has a dipole dishfeed for the 23 cm band on page 8.67. 23 cm is 9 inches. The dipole is 4 & 7/16 inches tip-to-tip, or just 5% short of 1/2-wavelength as expected for "end effects". The tip-to-tip length of a dipole need not be adjusted for feedline spacing.
