Original 4nec2 file and measurements by tripelo on an antenna provided by re_nelson. Note that the two Driven Elements are the SAME size with an IN-PHASE (not quite) QUARTER-WAVELENGTH feedline, rather than different length elements with HALF-WAVELENGTH CROSSOVER feedline used in a Log-Yagi.
holl_ands 4nec2 mods: Autosegment(21), variable Rsrc to adjust AGT=1.0, decimal roundoffs and various RP/FR statement choices.
The first set of curves assume a Half-Element Boom Correction of 0.125-inch (tripelo's guess). The second set of curves assumes ZERO Boom Correction, which is closer to the Top-Of-Boom derating per discussion found in YA-1713 album. Note 4nec2 predicted improvement in Ch13 Raw Gain & SWR....but predicted Ch7 Raw Gain roll-off is about the same.
Ch7-12 Raw Gain = 7.5 to 12.8 dBi, but Rolloff on Ch13 May NOT be Real. Ch7-12 SWR(300-ohms) Under 1.7, but Rise on Ch13 May NOT be Real.
