12-Ele.-28-Ohm-DK7ZB-Yagi (8,00m Boom)
One of the most built Yagis in DK7ZB-design and one of the most built Longyagis worldwide!
updated with new version DK7ZB-12 opt (10-July-2007)

4x12.-El.-144 MHz 4x8-El.-144 MHz 4x23-El.-432 MHz
A very good solution ist the mounting of 4x8-El.-Yagi vertical in front of the stacking harness. So Mario needs no glassfibre for the boom and has an x-pol antenna! |
4x12-Ele-EME- Yagi-Group built by Frank, DH7FB Each Yagi with a gain of 14,2dBd, Gain of the group 20dBd, G/T -1,60 Details by DH7FB with remote control by Internet

4x16-El.-28-Ohm-Yagis for 432MHz |
New design updated 10-July-2007 with YO 7 and EZNEC+5 for more bandwidth and slightly more gain. It is highly recommended to use 8mm- or 10mm-elements for best gain, bandwidth and pattern! The radiator has 12mm for all types. |
Lengths and positions of the elements
The given length of the radiator element is from tip to tip, including 10mm spacing for the insulated part.
