The Cushcraft 5 element 6m beam I am familiar with has a 12 foot boom. The 8 foot 4 inch boom sounds like a 3-element Cushcraft boom. I will measure the one 3-el. I have and get back to you. If I was building a 5-el. for 6, I would use a boom of 18 feet. The 5-el. I have used had 35 1/2 inch spacing between elements.I am thinking the 3-el. may be a 9 foot 4 inch boom.
