This antenna is easy to build
and cheap too. I found it on
DK7ZB's homepage.
It's an 3-Element-12,5-Ohm-Yagi with 1,90m-Boom. It's small, easy to
carry in a car, ideal for holidays with amateur radio or
expeditions.
It was easy to build, SWR was (still is) very good, it was surprising:
build and play. I put it on a 4m Mast just for
testing, and the antenna played at once.
Here are some pictures of my antenna:
