	EZNEC files for modelling the beams All versions are for bottom feeding. That means the coax is connected to the highest band (lowest wire in mechanical design). The files for 20m and up versions are new calculated but not yet built. If someone tries it out before I'm able to do so please let me know the results.

	Single band dimensions can be found in the ecxel file. I have already built the 40m monobander, duobander 40/30m, tribander 40/30/20m and 4-bander 40/30/20/17m and can confirm the calculated data. Antennas worked fine on the first attempt with the dimensions taken from EZNEC models. The 5-bander DL7IO-40-5 made some problems on 12m. I guess it is an interaction between the elements and the metal baseplate which is very close (10cm) to the bottom elements (12m). I will try again with another non-metalic base plate for 40m. Here is a presentation shown on a Hamfest in Jena, Germany on Apr. 23rd 2005.
