A small number of folks have either raised questions to me about modeling
trap antennas or have expressed doubts that they could. Actually,
modeling traps is a straightforward process, but with a pitfall or two, if
one ignores situations that change with frequency. I have set up some
notes on the process at my web site, with a couple of worked examples (a
dipole and a test-model 2-element Yagi--sorry, no commercial antennas), to
help folks with the process. It is too long for posting here. Hope it is
useful.
