[Antennas] MOSLEY_TA-33_MODIFICATION

My advice is to give it up, buy the beam and live longer. A tri-band yagi is
something that is designed by trial and error, and you might not live that
long.   <:}

There are formulas for trap inductance and capacitance, etc. for a simple
dipole, but a yagi is something else entirely. There are a semi-infinite
number of places where the trap(s) for each element and each band could be
placed and another semi-infinite number of combinations of L and C for each
trap for each band.

Tough job . . .
