Default Quad vs Yagi (or log)

The following web page shows azimuth and elevation projection
comparisons for a 2 element quad with quarter wave spacing vs. 3
element Yagi vs. 2 element delta loop driven array (both elements
driven.)

(A larger image is available by clicking on the smaller images.)

These images appear to be for Maximum Gain. Look at the VSWR curves. You
will need a tuner to get today's rigs to load any of these antennas.

Hi Dave,


http://www.gopherlink.com/DeltaXray/...-Detailed.html

Apparently you did not click on the image (page listed above) for the
SWR/Bandwidth graph to zoom the image and scroll to the bottom chart
which shows actual performance SWR @ Fr = 1:1 Z=47R Bandwidth = 680
khz @ 10 meters.

Actual and modeling parameters are shown on the web page listed
above.

The following page are photographs of the monoband 10 meter version

http://www.gopherlink.com/DeltaXray/hfantenn.htm

However the Yagi and the Quad require impedance transformations – the
stated modeling parameters specify "series current source" for all
three modeled antennas.

73,
