    Element spacing

    Hi ! ...yes good antenna...roughly were looking at 10,5 dBI (give of take 0,5 dB) And front to back in the order of 20 dB. But bare in mind...that "free-space".. If we situate the antenna at say 30 feet above ground. most signals on the back are above -25 dB (depending on angle arriving) with a...

    Element spacing

    Often it is how one interpertates things... From my perspective: It is just the "key" to try them let them work together in a way it was intended. Im trying to look at it from a different angle: We are now looking at parameters as individual parameters to make a strong convincing point..but...

    At the moment im using also the fighter 5000. Although i cant provide scientific proof as ny old wilson 1000 past away... im having the feeling this one is a step up. With 200 Watts pep my range is always about 150km from static mobile to static mobile with a similar setup. In fm..guess about...

    New Sirio 1/2 wave Gain Master

    Im hoping its center fed...although the tuning advice says "cut" the top.. So that leads me to think its end fed. In aspect to the "source". Of course anyway can play a trick etc, and in all honesty..i think we have spoken before that they should do a center fed halve wave, so im not astonished...

    New Sirio 1/2 wave Gain Master

    Hi marconi !.. The antenna reminds me of a funny story here on forum about a employee and boss of sirio.. Think bob made it ?... Anyway..would you happen to know if it is central fed or end fed ?... Hoping it is central fed as that could actually bring something, and its not another end fed...

    Yagi in between V/H

    Hi ! Well..in all honesty, i had the same point of view in the beginning. Sadly it was incorrect. Attached a fast calculation..by all means.. not optimised to show maximum 'proof'.. but allready im seeing several S-units in take off advantage. both antennas are the same on the same mast and...

    Yagi in between V/H

    On 11 meter DXing we are dealing with a thing called Faraday Rotation. As soon as someone sees a large difference between a vertical and horizontal antenna. It is primairly NOT due to the polarisation but for most because the antennas have different take off angles or...there is a large...

    Best beam for low height

    I can imagine you have had that experience. Though i doubt the difference made is because of yagi versus quad. (especially when placed at a decent height).cause i never had that experience. And yes, i have tested constructed measured etc. Perhaps the yagi's didnt perform to its abbiltily ? Or...
