Yes.I confirm that it is possible.
Unfortunately I haven't seen much interest and have not pursued for 40M. I
have several fractal designs that would fit in that turning radius, roughly
5 dBi and better than 20 dB F/B.
Someone mentioned a Moxon...too big. Hex's are also too big.
If there is enough interest I can write something up. Frankly I haven't
seen it (with hams).
I am using fractal collinears here in form factors of inverted V's at
moment. Mucho DX. I run EU on 40M most evenings.

Hey Gang
OK - here is a question - anyone out there doing custom beams? I have
kind of a sticky
Right now I'm running a Force 12 D-140, frankly because that all that will
FIT - I have a 38ft piece of property, and it has an 18 ft turning radius
I'd LOVE to have a bit more gain, but even the smallest shorty 40s I've
found are SLIGHTLY too big.
I was wondering if anyone could design a 18.5 ft or less turning radius
40m beam...
