The feed point was 50 ohms in all of them I know of.
Note that the 6 element and longer ones benefit greatly by running them
through an optimizer like yo. The 6 element 20m improves quite a bit by
shortening the 3rd director to make it a long boom 5 element, the 8 element
ones also optimize down to 5 active elements. I never got much improvement
on the 3 or 4 element ones though. The last long 10m one I played with was
a great 11m antenna by their design, it needed lots of adjustment to be
decent on 10m.
