[TowerTalk] OWA Yagis was 40m 4el KLM - replacing linear loading with coils

True, however unless you have a good way to model the hairpin, an OWA is
easier build since it will work with little if any adjusting.

30m full size + 4-element 17m combo that uses a conventional hairpin 
match on both bands.  The 12m is a similar hairpin matched type.  The 
WARC bands are so narrow vs. the frequency that you don't run into the 
issues that we have on much wider bands.

My other antennas for the conventional HF bands are OWA type. And that 
is for all the reasons mentioned prior.
