I think there is some good info at Jay, WX0B's website - www.arraysolutions.com I think.

Besides using linear loading on the longest elements, something else you can do to shrink the antenna footprint is to bend the ends downward. I've done this several times and you won't even notice any difference. Just be careful when bending the ends down 90 degrees or you'll kink and break them.
