[Master Chief]

Here is a guy who re-spaced a Maco Antenna too.

He doesn't not write so good.
(read this with tongue planted firmly in cheek!)

 

[youngest man]

well I order the parts from maco so they are mine. I am working on a 75meter beam I will share my results with you soon I use a Ham program to build my antennas.

Does it look anything like this one? Notice the guy standing on the boom just left of center. :shock:

 

[33 the kid]

is that real wow

 

[Captain Kilowatt]

It is real.It belongs to 7J4AAL in Hiroshima Japan.

7J4AAL's 80m yagi

 

[Beetle]

That 7J4AAL! What an "ahiru doro".

That's "Mudduck", I believe.

 

[Captain Kilowatt]

Hey Pat,if 7J4AAL is an "ahiru doro" on 80m as you claim what does that make you? Or me for that matter. I know. Jealous right? Actually I just noticed that antenna is good for 75/80m and 160m as well as a rotary dipole. :?

SKYWAVE SKYWAVE THE REAL TRUE ANTENNA

WELL THIS IS WHAT I DO IF YOU ALREADY HAVE A MACO BEAM I CAN MODIFY THE BEAM TO MY SPECS OR I CAN BUILD YOU ONE I ORDER ALL THE MATERIAL FROM MACO AND I USE MY SPECS TO BUILD WHAT I WANT............

What is the software you are using?

 

[W5LZ]

Got a friend who had a two element quad on 75 meters. It could be turned, but only by hand (you just didn't do that much turning with it - lol). Would loved to have had it but not enough to put up the tower it required. Besides, it wouldn't fit on my property. Oh well, some of us just have to 'make do'...
