I would like to point out that the reflector and directors in a yagi are
resonant. They are slightly off resonance (not at the peak)so that their phase
relationships are proper for them to behave as they do. If they were far off
resonance they would not induce suffecient currents for them to have any effect
on the radiation pattern.
Try your yagi modeling program and make the director much shorter or the
refelctor much longer and observe the gain ,radiation pattern and the magnitude
and phase of the currents in the elements.
Just picked up a Johnson Desk KW. Going to be buisy with it for a while.
