I am Hoping to Homebrew my FIRST Full-Sized 2 element 20m Monobander. I =
have Two Identical Full-Sized (Insulated from the boom) Driven Elements =
and up to a 30' x 2" Boom in my Barn pieced together from many Fallen =
yagis over the years. I desire Resonance at 14.200mhz. The yagi can be =
about a wavelength up on the tower and the guys are insulated and the =
tower is grounded.
Q1=3D DE plus REFLECTOR ... or ... DE plus DIRECTOR ... and ... should =
the elements be 'Floating off the Boom'?
Q2=3D 2 Element LogCell Match or what and How to get 50ohm match for =
coax?
Q3=3D Best Boom Length for Maximum Forward Gain?
Q4=3D Balun, Coax wound RF Choke, or ferrite bead choke?
You can email me Direct: wv4r@neto.com
