3-Element-12-m-Yagi with 12.5 Ohm (Version 1)

Boom 3,50 m, narrow band version, high gain, high F/B (Version 2 see down)

Do not mount this Yagis with other antennas nearby. DK7ZB-match with 2x50-Ohm lambda/4 coax.

Short data for the Yagi at the begin, in the middle part and at the end of the band

Plot with the NEC-II-reference of YO7.2 by K6STI

The meaning of the data :

Frequency, gain, F/R, radiation resistance (impedance), SWR and loss against a theoretical defined maximum-gain- Yagi with the given boomlength. Remember, that this gain is only available with very low impedance and extrem low bandwidth!
