Updated dimensions (18-July-2006) for a little bit more bandwidth, new antenna built and tested :

 

Element Element-position Element-length (12mm) Element-length (10mm)
Ref 0mm 2970mm 2974mm
Rad 600mm 2820mm (see text below) 2820mm (see text below)

Middle part of the radiator for 12mm and 10mm parasitic elements 2x150mm of 16x1,5mm, outer ends 12x1mm, length tip to tip. Fine-tuning by shifting the 12mm-parts.

Match with 2xLambda/4 50-Ohm-coax in parallel to a grounded socket, feedpoint impedance 50Ohm.

An other construction for the radiator is a folded dipole with an impedance of 50Ohm (4x12.5Ohm). At the feedpoint use a toroid balun 1:1 (T 200-6) to match the symmetrical load to the coax-cable.
