[Towertalk] 80m 2el short yagi matching

[VE6WZ_steve]

I am finishing my MININEC modeling of a close-spaced 2el 80m Yagi.  68 foot inductor loaded elements, 28 foot boom. Reflector/driven configuration.
These dimensions have been selected to fit on my small lot.
So far the modeling looks promising with reasonable F/B, good gain but, as expected, very narrow bandwidth......both SWR and F/B.  My inductor design will be 1/4" copper tubing on a 6" "almost air" core. (need around 30 uh and the losses should be manageable).
I am looking for some advice on matching alternatives...Coiled Hairpin, T, Gamma/Omega ??  The modeled feedpoint impedance is around 16 ohms (at 100' ).  With the narrow bandwidth, I need to be able to remotely tune the feed....at least for CW/SSB.  (The reflector will also be remotely tuned..probably relay selected capacitors.)
At this point I imagine a split element, but realize a good balun would be required in this case. Maybe an Omega match with remote motor-drive Caps would make band tuning easier. The F-12 coiled hairpin seems like a good alternative, but then would require a inductor type switch box for band tuning.
Anyone have some ideas or real-time experience with this??

Thanks, de Steve VE6WZ
