Bill:

I wouldnt get into all the academics of modeling a dipole.  If its for Field 
Day, the basic idea is to get a station on the air.

I would simply cut a half wave dipole, feed it with the open wire line and use 
a balun/tuner where necessary.

Any differences found in modeling would be lost in the field installation 
anyway.

Good luck and seeya on FD
