In case anyone is interested in constructing a switchable 
8-circle based on the BSEF array, W9RE's PCB is laid out with 
provisions for Magic-Ts and step-up auto-transformers where 
applicable, also the phase inverter.  I finally got my array up 
using Mike's board a week or so before ARRL160 and it does quite 
well against the broadside beverage arrays, especially useful for 
diversity reception.
