Hi Andrew

Couldn't really say as I use a trapped dipole for 20m/30m (about to add 
40m as well) but I find the easiest way is to put it up at the length 
you worked out and then check at what frequency you get the lowest SWR. 
Then trim/add the length to get to the required frequency with lowest 
SWR. Works every time but takes quite a while running in and out of the 
shack adjusting length then checking frequency.
