Doc .. I have about 3-4 of those critters in my aluminum pile ..    forget 
about "converting" .. just look at the components for what they are, and 
build yourself a nice 3L using them for whatever the plans call for ... 
pretty easy, you may want to use a modeling program, and measure all the 
element parts, etc. .. however, if you slide up and down the Magic Band, as 
I do, that may not be too important .... aim for your most popular fq and 
have fun!  73, awaiting the arrival of my newly purchased 6M amp, pair of 
3-500Z -- whee!   Hiya neighbors!  Now, if the Alpha 87A I am running on HF 
would only go up that high, but the KW out of the single bander shall have 
to do .. HIHI    73!

I have been given a 3-element 11M beam with rotator.

Anyone converted one of these to 6M?

Any gotcha's and/or recommendations?
