[SEDXC] Looking for the N9 modified 5 el 6 meter beam

[Mike]

Dave here what I think it a better article that makes a 6 element out of 
a 5 element by extending the boom to 17.5 ft.  I think it shows better 
gain.  They have supporting info about their gain figures.  I think 
keeping it 6 elements and using W5WVO calculations looks best,  Both the 
articles I sent you were found via Google for modification of Cushcraft 
6 M antennas.       73 Mike K4PI www.bigskyspaces.com/w7gj/A50-5S_w5wvo.pdf
