The element to boom mounting using a U bolt is a pretty fast and easy
method for mounting. Also if you use their idea of rivets you can
temporarily insert the rivets and tape over them to hold them in place.
I suppose you could permanently mount a piece of aluminum on the booms
and then u-bolt the elements to. You would have to account for that
mounting system in the design. I am not sure what you would be gaining.

Hi All-
Our radio club is building a yagi to be used mostly for Field Day type
setups.
It's modeled upon the F-12 C-3 line, with the difference being we are not
crazy about the element to boom mounting method with the u-bolts. I would
like to come up with something that is MUCH faster to assemble and
dis-assemble.
We have a few ideas but would sure like to know of any others out there.
Do any of you have some that you would be willing to share with us and the
group?
73 and HNY to all.
