[TowerTalk] Cushcraft/MFJ Traps

SteppIR beam do not have traps but they use a fixed element spacing as  
mentioned in your tribander post. Has any SteppIR owner done the  
modeling work to see what effect this really has?

Trapped tribanders have shorter elements, which has an effect on
pattern, and they have non-optimal element spacing for any particular
band, which again affects pattern gain.
