Suggestions re. dimensions and location of a director?

Thanks.


I believe I tried lengths of a 3% to 5% shorter length with the
director, than the drive element (i.e., the one in front of the
reflector), settling on a 4% shorter length ... anyway, that is common
in HF parasitic arrays ... this is equiv. to a 3-element quad on HF.

I just dug it out and measured it, this is what it appears to be,
alright. With a spacing between driven element and director of ~0.2
wavelength, center-to-center.
