I bought a 3 element trap yagi antenna that was disassembled. I was told
it was a Hy-Gain model. After laying out the parts I can see that it doesn't look like a Hy-Gain model because of the following: 1. It uses large diameter, single traps. These are identified with color coded lables (red, green and blue - radiator, director, etc.) 2. It doesn't have a "beta-match" - rather, it looks like the driven element is directly connected to the coax. The mounting of the driven element is almost exactly like the Hy-Gain style with insulators that are mounted into a clamp that surrounds the boom. 3. The director and reflector use boom mounts that are different than Hy-Gains. The mounts are made from aluminum extrusion and use a circular opening to mount to the boom and have a wide, flat top that the element bolts to. Does anyone know what make and model this 3 element beam is? After I 'ID' it I can then get the assembly instructions so I know what dimensions to set up since all of the joints on the elements are "sliding joints" with clamps, Thanks for the help, Henry W7YBS |
