I built one of these for 2M for a ham neighbor.
The half-folded dipole design provides a
perfect match direct feed to 50 Ohm coax,
no balun required - simplicity itself.
Lowes Home centers carry AWG 6
bare copper wire by the foot which is
what I used for the driven element.

reproduce designs out there now. WA5VJB's "Cheap Yagis" are legendary -
see http://www.wa5vjb.com/yagi-pdf/cheapyagi.pdf . I've got a couple of
