6-Element-28-Ohm-Yagi with 7.20m-Boom

Short data: Gain 10.1 dBd, F/B >20dB, bandwidth 1MHz (49.6-50.6 MHz) at SWR < 1.5. This Yagi was built first for 2m and  and the pattern was verified by measurement. After that the Yagi was scaled for the 6m-Band. I use that Yagi now 2,30m above of my 15-Ele.-Log-Periodic on a new tower.

The design is very uncritical and you can mount this Yagi 2m above another beam with very low detuning effects! The antenna was constructed to reach the "magic" 10dB gain.

The 6-El.-28-Ohm-DK7ZB-Yagi

built by Ed, N5BLZ

 

With this antenna he made a 50MHz-EME-QSO with 

Larry, W7UIV 

Larry used a single 7-El.-28-Ohm-DK7ZB-Yagi!

 

A great success with the genious software of  John Taylor, W1JT!
