Here is the theoretical H-plane plot of our Yagi:

And a photo:

After looking at the picture and the plot I fired up yo
and the only way I could get that low a gain was to
seriously mess up the antenna. The end effect was
a 2 element yagi witha spurious useless element.

This is further confirmed by the picture. It appears
the rightmost element is the fed element (very strange for a three
element design) and the proportions suggest a reflector close to the
driven and longer. The third element (the leftmost) would be spurious
as it's behind the reflector and far away.

Please explain that yagi, it's strange.
