One of the interesting features of the FT-817 is that many of the conventional calibration settings that would have, in the past, been done using manual adjustments of coils, capacitors, and potentiometers, are done via software.

This page discusses the construction and design of a shortened 2-element Yagi antenna for the 40-meter band, focusing on the driven element. The author shares insights on adding hats to the coil to reduce losses and improve performance. The article also mentions the use of EZNEC modeling software and an AIM4170 analyzer for tuning. Amateur radio operators interested in such antenna design and optimization for the 40-meter band can find useful information and practical tips on this page.
