2 S units = 12 dB.  There must be other differences besides double the
elements.

Skip - I modeled a 44ft boom 8 el 10M yagi using the ARRL Yagi Design
software YW.  I bought a 105 and some additional boom tubing of 2.5 and 3
inch to extend the boom and used other Al I had to make the 3 additional
directors.  It has to be the most economical way to create an 8 el 44 ft
boom 10M yagi on the planet. And it rocks.  Its fixed on the tower to EU and
is about 2 S units stronger than my 4 el 10M beam doing A/B switching.  It's
a band opener to EU.
