I'm trying resurrect an old KLM Yagi and need one insulator for a director element. These are T-shaped and have a groove to fit along the 1-1/2" boom and a 3/8" hole through which the element passes.
That is precisely what Tashjian recommends. _______________________________________________ _______________________________________________ TowerTalk mailing list TowerTalk@contesting.com http://list
I have used the MFJ-269 to measure coax loss at HF frequencies for several years and my experiences have been generally good: losses measured for new coax very closely agreed with the published specs

If my memory serves, it was W6PU. I worked him on 20M about two years ago and we talked about his design. I think, but am not certain, that he is still using the dual driven quad. I believe the artic
I agree with Norm and others that the quarter wave 72 ohm matching sections are simple and effective for matching a typical two element quad. Although most of my experiences are with four element qua
The Wireman markets some ICE products. One time I had ordered one of them and there was an extremely long delay before delivery. When I questioned the delay through the Wireman's phone rep, they basi

I believe W6KPC, Frank, had 36 elements (three pairs of horizontally stacked 6 element Yagis) on 20M and 27 or so elements on 15M. The array was on the cover of QST around 1981. The last time I worke
Gedas, just curious. Is he using trees to support his wire elements? If so, getting the wires all in the same plane and reasonably parallel has to be a major problem. He must be a very determined and
