This is a great design, however with the 19 or so foot T sections it is
not a small antenna.  I would not consider them to be a shorty forty.

Matt,

Are you aware of the W6NL Moxon designs?  There are 3, two mods of existing
40m shorty beams and one that is a scratch build.  They are in use by big
contestors - eg. K3LR and 8P5A.  I've built two, one for myself and one for
K6KR and now have a second built by K7ZSD for stack , these are the 110mph
scratch build designs.

Anyway, they perform extremely well and avoid the mechanical and
gain/bandwidth/FB problems of other "shorty 40's".

You can find more info in the Dayton archives in the section moderated by
K3LR, or I can send some you some pdfs.
