Herb-
I have done alot of experimenting with the old F12 C3 line.
What you are proposing is certainly feasible. If I were going to do it
I would definitely model it in EZNec first before I touched a single
nut or bolt. You can spend a hideous amount of time tuning if
you just start out by changing element lengths.
