SNIP And finally, don't be persuaded by that old saying about how a two element quad is equal to a three element yagi. So what? A three element yagi is FAR easier to build than a two element quad. The bottom line is this: Once the quad is up in the air, it will generally outperform a yagi of equivalent cost. The problems lie in getting it up in the air and keeping it there. If I had it all to do over again, starting from scratch, I probably would use a yagi. -- 73, Bill W6WRT QSLs via LoTW And, I would use a Log Periodic!! I give up about 1 dB in gain and acquire a 13.5 MHz to 33 MHz broadband antenna, no traps, full legal power handling capability and a VSWR 2:1 across the full range. That means 20, 17, 15, 12 and 10 meters all in ONE Beam. W1MCE |
