EZNEC is a great tool and fun to use but it sure would be nice if it
optimized. I am not sure what you impedance is. I am sure that you can
make it direct feed 50 ohms if you can extend the boom a few feet.  This
makes it very easy to adjust the DE for low SWR.  GL with your project.

I used eznec to model a small beam for my son who is going for his general. 2
element 20 meter yagi on a 10 ft boom the results were pretty good. Any
suggestions on how to improve? The driven element is 16fy 6 inches per side
reflector is +10%
