YO Design Parameters for W3LPL 15M 6L Yagi

[Frank Donovan]

Anyone out there interested in high performance monoband Yagis???
I'll prime the pump by sharing the YO file for my 6 element 15M beam on a
48 foot boom.  Of course, I have YO files for all of my Yagis, and if
there is sufficient interest, I'll post the YO files for my 40, 20 and
10M Yagis.

Use H key to set elevation angle to 3.5 degrees

T-match parameters: 
Rod diameter 0.5" 
Rod spacing  5" 
Rod length   31" 
Lead length  3" 
Series Cap   99999 pf
Feed Z       200 ohms
   
Experience indicates that the driven element tip
must be lengthened to 67 inches, the length that
produces a modelled impedance of +j20 at 21.225 MHz
