Fred:
Yes, it will affect the other bands if you shorten the 80-meter portion.
The way to adjust things on 80 meters is to work with the end spacers and
fold lengths of wire back on themselves.
I have not done this, but I know it can work.
For specifics, it might be good to e-mail Don Tyrrell, the guy whose company
makes those antennas.
His e-mail address is:

Again, I wouldn't cut the 80-meter portion unless that is absolutely
necessary, and I would consult with Don before doing anything.

Subject: Question on Alpha Delta DXCC Antenna
Could any of you guys that have, or have used the DXCC antenna tell me if
the other bands will be affected if I shorten the eighty meter portion of
the antenna? I was thinking of some changes on the eighty meter portion of
the antenna but I don't want to mess up the other bands on the antenna.
Thanks much,
