you read the chart wrong. 900mm is 88mhz range (full extension). and 400mm is 110mhz (which you will never use). So for example, if I were to operate at 100.1mhz, the length of the upper element would be about 600mm.

good question, I use the hose band model, which is the first in the pdf, and it seems to be like the manual you have.

Ok, it's up now. I adjusted it and it was around 5 cm less than it should. The result was good. Thanks for putting it on your site.
