You may get a couple of answers from this reflector, but I think you'd
have more luck by just doing a Google search for "Optibeam" and "OB4-40"
and then contacting the folks who show up in the results. There are
several of them, including some contest stations.
For what it may be worth, I own an OB2-40 as well as an OB16-3, and the
gain and SWR plots for both antennas match almost identically the
Optibeam published information (you can get the EZNEC output plots from
DF2BO for the asking). I would expect the OB4-40 plots to be similarly
dependable.
I also have some closeup pictures of the construction details for the
OB2-40 and O16-3 on my website at AB7E.com, and the OB4-40 uses pretty
much the same hardware.
