As far as I understand, this will be a single
element, ie. dipole for 30M / 40M and can be used
as a stand-alone dipole or as a replacement DE to
upgrade excisting 2L, 3L or 4L SteppIR yagi. It
is a 38 feet long element, linear loaded on 30M /
40M and is expected to be only .15 dB below a full-size dipol on 40M.
