Electrically, it makes no difference.

Mechanically, elements BELOW the boom will tend to stay in place when mounting structures loosen. Those mounted ABOVE the boom will rotate from the horizontal and require service more quickly.

Quoting Marv Shelton <marvs@att.net>:

Its probably already been asked and answered but what ia everyone's opinion on if the elements on a multi-band yagi should be installed hanging below or above the boom?
What is any are the structural or other reasons for one way or the other?
