Vertical Yagi?

"Dave" wrote in message news:HEbek.91$kf4.54@trnddc03... "John Ferrell" wrote in message ... Why do we always mount our HF Yagi's in the horizontal plane? Antenna maintenance would be much easier for those of us with tilt over towers if the antenna were in the horizontal plane when down for maintenance! John Ferrell W8CCW vertical yagi's work fine... if you can get them far enough away from the conductive tower and mast either vertically or horizontally... though i do believe you get better ground reflection from the horizontal polarization. There is a new product that allows yagis mounted horizontally to automatically pivot as you tilt over a tower so they stay level with the ground. |
