[Boatanchors] Beam question

The Mosley trap antennas (20/15/10 meters) have only one apparent trap assembly on each half of the dipole. 
 
There are two coils inside those housings.  The smaller coil is the 10 meter portion and will be positioned closest to the center feedpoint and the larger is resonant at 15 meters.
 
As a last resort, go to Mosley's website and get the instructions for the TA-33.  Mosley sold/sells the driven element alone as a TA-31. 
 
I suspect that somebody close to you has a TA-33 instruction sheet that you could copy to get the info you need.
