Happy New Year to All!
I am looking for an article that appeared some years ago concerning the
cutting and phasing of Radio Shack FM broadcast band beams. They make a
six
element beam that when cut down (two of them) and phased, make an
excellent
light weight, narrow beamwidth, good gain, inexpensive beam for 2 meters.
I
have a pair polarized vertically, and they work great.

Problem is, someone gave me this great set up and he can not remember
where
he got the info for cutting to length, and is also looking for the info.

I don't have specific info, but if you shorten the elements by the radio
100/146, you should be
pretty close.

BTW, that pdf file link in this thread is only good if you are an ARRL
member. I'm not.

Would you like the PDF E-mailed to you?
