Inthis video, Dave show us how to build a simple, efficient 2 Meter yagi antenna out of metal coat hangers. You could also use roll up metal rulers sold in hardware stores for the antenna elements. Your boom could be made from pvc pipe, wood, or bamboo. Just follow Dave's simple instructions and, in no time, you'll have a fully functional yagi W7LPN2m/440 vertical dipole. The project below is my own design for a dualband vertical dipole for 2 meters and 440. It requires a balun and works very well. I like to tinker, so when I finish one project, I go on to another, even if it works well. There are several methods of constructing a vertical dualband dipole and a simple method is Inthis video I show the setup and configuration of a 6 element 2 meter Yagi I used for a recent ham radio fox hunt, also known as a transmitter hunt. I als Allbands are covered, including 30, 17, and 12. The G5RV has high SWR, by design, on most bands and a tuner is required. A multi-band super mini loop antenna. To build this antenna you need a lot that is at least 100 feet across. Antenna covers all bands 80-10 meters + 30, 17, 12 meter WARC Bands. For2 meters, the coil is 4 turns of coax at 5 inches in diameter. You should get good results with the choke within 3 or 4 inches of the feedpoint on 2 meters. Hint: Use the last part of your feedline as the choke before attaching to the feedpoint! Hints from builders: "Iv'e built my j-poles out of 10ft sticks of 1/2" emt conduit. Justlike the gamma match for our 3 Elements Yagi the construction technique for building the gamma match for the 4 Elements Yagi are similar, except for some measurement changes. The gamma tube for the 4 Elements yagi is about 2.54 cm shorter. Please refere to the diagram for actual measurements. This yagi will give [] XSCv.
