The equivalent diameter of clamps is also covered in Section 9.1 of the Leeson
text, "Physical Design of Yagi Antennas". AutoEZ can do the Leeson
calculations, as shown in this dialog:

The free demo version of AutoEZ includes this feature. You are more than
welcome to use it to determine the dimensions and then modify your .ez/.nec
model as necessary.
