Add up the lengths of all the element material you have.
Divide by 5 [assuming a 5-element yagi]
If the result you get is about 36 .. it's a 20-meter antenna,
If the result you get is about 23 .. it's a 15-meter antenna,
If the result you get is about 17 .. it's a 10-meter antenna.
If the result you get is something else ... you've got pieces of the
antenna, and not all of it!
