As the saying goes: YMMV...!
I have Yagi's for 40 through 6m, but for 80m I use 4" spaced OWL feeding the
copperweld about 600 feet away from my house. The spacers for the OWL is
made from plastic coat hangers.

Hi Tommy
I think the design for the antenna they were talking about used 3 wires as a
skeleton slot type. One was fed and the other 2 were parasitics to give the
antenna a wide bandwidth. That would probably take wider spacers. 73
