Subject: [Antennaware] 6m design to make a yagi
After adding three 6M elements to my roof
mounted, Hygain tribander, this by using
Joe Hallas, W1ZR's excellent tutorial. I
have a different matching system than his
and I had to move the capacitively coupled
driven element 25" forward instead of 10
but it works pretty well.
With that, I've decided to explore 6
meters after almost 40 years of working
the HF bands. I just bought a nice 6M amp
and really should have a separate 6M beam
and one with more than 3 elements.
I haven't found a used one to buy locally
and might just be better off making my
own. Unfortunately, it won't be mounted
more than 35' high but it will be
something better than I have now.
I don't have the design software to design
my own, so wondering if anyone has plans
for a 6 element yagi that they've worked
out, that they might share with me.
Thanks & 73,
Gary
