By the way Joe, for decent efficiency, theory recommends that you try to
make the elements no shorter than 66% of a full size element. I guess 18'
would fall short by a bit.

A friend of mine, Dave KA7GLI,  is seeking comments, design info, for a 2
element shortened 20m yagi with a maximum element length of 18' for phone
band coverage.  Neither of us has access to any computer design programs.
Would appreciate hearing from those who have  successfully home-brewed a
shortened beam.  Leads to published articles would be appreciated.   Many
thanks, Joe k7mks
