[VHFcontesting] Yagi antenna's

Has anyone built the 8el 432 yagi from the dimensions on the W0FMS site?
The length of director four (11") looks wrong.  I suspect it should be 12"
instead.

George:  Will you be operating from near Willits, CA?  I usually operate as
a rover in CM97, CM98, DM09, etc.  I works a station on Shasta several times
during the June contest.
