I don't have the 6M24 drawing, although I did own the antenna for years.
The Hy-Gain six element beam for 50 MHz is a near carbon-copy knockoff,
however. The only real difference between the Telrex and the Hy-Gain is the
Hy-Gain used clamshell element clamps to attach the elements, whereas the
Telrex ran the elements straight through the boom, except for the driven
element which was insulated. They both use a T-match and coax balun at the DE.
Maybe that will help -- the Hy-Gain instructions, dimensions, etc. are on line
at their website.

Subject: [TowerTalk] Telrex 6M624 antenna
Hi Joe,
I inherited a Telrex 6M624 from an Elmer friend. It is in pieces and
like yours needs a little refurbishing. More importantly I'm looking for
any documentation on assembly for this antenna. Might you have a manual or
Telrex assembly documentation for yours?
Thanks...
