This is a 4 element VHF / 7 element UHF yagi tuned for 145.800 / 436.800. As the note at the top and bottom of this page says, it is based on the "$4 satellite antenna" by KG0ZZ. I made a few minor changes to its construction, but all the measurements are his.
Parts Required:
(1) 8' 1x2 board. (Will be cut down to ~60") (4) Metal coat hangers (For 2m elements) (1) Roll of 16 gauge or larger fence wire. (70cm elements) -You could also use coat hangers for this (~35) #10 x1/2" 5/6" hex head. (use three per element) (2ea) #6x32 1.25" Pan head screws, nuts. (4) #6 washers. (2) Small wire connectors (for coax) (1) 6+ foot coax with your choice of connector. (I used BNC) |
