    2 Element Yagi

    I'm interested in finding out how a 2element will do, never made a thought to make one. I'll have a better understanding after today when I put it together. I'll have to try it on vertical also, but flatside is my main reason for trying it out

    2 Element Yagi

    Thanks for the replies, I have a 6ft boom and the 2 elements and gamma. Would the boom need to be shorter so the mounting bracket is in the middle of the boom, or could I have it on a 6ft boom and have the bracket @ the end of it.

    2 Element Yagi

    Was wondering if anyone has dimensions for a 2 element yagi on 11 meters. Space limits a 3 element or higher. I have the Maco BA1 dipole, thinking of adding another element and make it a 2. Having a hard time finding any info for a 2 element yagi for 11 meters. Any ideas or info.Thanks

    The “what were they thinking” thread - CB Radio Edition

    All that bling reminds me of the guys around Indianapolis, yet they ask for 10-20 radio checks and "What am I putting on your meter".

    directional gainmasters

    The one thing I did notice the most that I do remember is, if my coax going into the antenna was facing my direction, I'd hear a lot more noise, and I'd come thru my tv..Face it the other direction or away from me just a little and it would go away

    directional gainmasters

    Last year when I put up my sirio 2016, I raise and lower depending on how the wind is that day. So my coax going into the antenna ends up in a different direction alot, I also thought I noticed something funny, but I did have a lot of beer on the menu. Might have to do some testing with no beer...

    Another new Ranger 2970N3

    I want to see a good solid base made. The sad part is they all look the same, and all the same features. Glad I dove deep on a HF rig

    How dish internet works. A signal is sent from the internet to a satellite above the Earth. This signal is sent to the dish at your home, which transmits the signal to the computer inside your house via a wired connection. Information downloads from the internet using a satellite via this...

    Satellite dishes are protected by federal law but not amateur antennas?

    I guess I see things on the dish a little different, no real issue.

    Satellite dishes are protected by federal law but not amateur antennas?

    So a dish can't or doesn't transmit. I'm looking at it all wrong

    Satellite dishes are protected by federal law but not amateur antennas?

    The FEDS have things twisted don't they? You would think they'd back up folks or set in motion something to (help) protect you guys. As far as the dish, that's very funny to me cause my lease clearly states that it's allowed cause the dish is receive only and doesn't transmit. Whoever thinks it...

    Apartment Base Station

    Just a little update. Things are the same as far as the setup. Antenna swr 1.1-1.2 across the band, over the summer talked a lot of skip, locals still don't think i'm in an apartment. I kinda want to step it up a notch or so, (AMP)!.....Have 20amps of service in my living room and have ran just...
