Connections to an antenna
I'm building the WA5VJB "cheap yagi" antenna. Other than soldering,
what are some simple methods/materials for attaching the center wire and braid to 1/8 inch diameter driven element. I figure there must be a magic clamp, strap, electrical connector, etc. out there somewhere... TIA. Bill W2ET |

Bill W2ET Hi Bill When I use aluminum rod for driven elements, I thread the end of the rod then use two nuts to squeeze the wire between them. 0.125 OD will require a small die. Jerry |
