2m Tape Yagi

WB2HOL 3 ELE YAGI

The WB2HOL yagi is a popular choice for ARDF. A link to the original design can be found at the end of this post.
This page describes some alternative construction methods, and integration with a 2m receiver enclosure.

The WB2HOL yagi uses 4-way pipe connectors used to support the elements, but these are not generally available in the UK

After several failed attempts to use T-piece connectors and various pipe clips to support the elements the author finally opted to use a 2-hole-fixing plastic saddle clip, designed for the Marley 21.5mm overflow system. The elements are made from 25mm wide tape. The basic dimensions are shown below, optimized for operation at 144.5MHz
