![]() in the last weeks I have been fighting againts my two Tonna's crossed Yagis: a 2x19 elements UHF and a 2x9 elements VHF. I still cannot manage to have them up and running. Here are the details of the story: UHF Both dipoles, when feeded separately, resonate perfectly between 420 and 426 MHz. Faston climps feed the diples (dont agree with this solution but there must be a valid reason if they adopted them). I have coupled them using two lamda/4 sections of RG-59. Each section is 11.3 cm long... ### ((300/436) * 0.66) / 4 ###. They terminate on a BNC wich goes on a Tee-BNC down to the RTX. It has been a long time but I think when I put up a Tonna that 50 ohm coax was used between the elements and the T . I know this does not make for matching as normally 1/4 wave sections of 70 ohm coax is used in a 50 ohm system. Not sure what the lengths were seems that differant lengths were used for right or left hand circular but not very sure on that at all. |
