think i finally found what you're after....on pg 160-163

1.4 sides are 18' each
2.feed side & opposite side are pulled tight to hold diamond shape
3.non-fed side is separated by spacer at approx 3"
4.feed side separated same 3" & fed via matching transformer

i know i've been slow locating this for you, & scan comes out @ 600kb, just for quad pic! i'll try to shrink it & keep it readable with match build info. if i can't make it readable to post, i'll just copy & send....
