[TowerTalk] Limited Space

[Daniel R Goddard]

Because I have limited space with which to work to get a beam antenna up
on a tower.  Is it possible to shorten the reflector element of the beam
without effecting the overall SWR or performance of the antenna.

The reflector element is 40 feet long.  Could one make it 20 or 25 feet
without any harm being done to the overall performance?

Thanks
