7-Element-Yagi for the 2m-Band with the 28-Ohm-DK7ZB-Match

Version 1: 144-146MHz broadband

Version 2: 144-145 MHz for SSB/CW use

Version 3: 144-144,8 MHz for EME/SSB/CW use

This antenna (Version 1) was described in the issue 2/2000 of the magazine "FUNKAMATEUR" , report "Kurze Yagis für das 2m-Band in bewährter 28-Ohm-Technik".

Short data: 11dBd gain, boomlength 3,30m, very good pattern. For the match see: DK7ZB-Match

Elements are mounted insulated above the boom with polyamid clamps for TV-Yagis (Konni)

The screw in the center of the element has no influence to the length of the elements and is connected to the boom!

Gain, SWR, Front/Rear and Feedpoint- Impedance

Best F/R in the CW/SSB-part of the 2m-Band

Version 2: 144-145 MHz for SSB/CW use

This version is for SSB/CW use, specially for stacking to groups (2x or 4x) with better gain at 144,3 MHz.

Elementpositions and -lengths: Radiator 12mm, parasitic elements 10mm, 8mm or 6mm, mounted with Polyamid clamps (see details for the other 2m-Yagis)
