Jim-
I am curious about why you are suggesting that one needs NEC 4 software to
design a 2 el. duobander.
FWIW I basically took a C-3 and removed the 10M elements, tweaked it with a
model in EZnec (NEC 2), built it according to the model. It ended up being
resonant exactly where the model predicted with an swr of 1.0 at resonance on
20. However on 15 it ended up with 2.0-1 swr . Maybe I should have used NEC4.
