I was just getting ready to stick up a Hygain 105CA fixed south this 
weekend and for kicks I decided to adapt NW3Z's OWA design to the HG105CA 
antenna.  I added a single element, making the antenna now six elements, 
and kept the same boom length of 24'.  I have stuck the AO file at the 
link below, if anyone is interested.  

6 Element modified HyGain 105CA on a 24' boom.

Segmentation Density: 30 segments / halfwave

28.0Mhz    F/B=26.33db    Gain=9.88    SWR=1.04
28.4Mhz    F/B=36.55db    Gain=10.03   SWR=1.06
28.8Mhz    F/B=23.67db    Gain=10.03   SWR=1.22
29Mhz      F/B=22.19db    Gain=9.92    SWR=1.75
