Paul McMahon details the design and construction of a four-element Yagi antenna for the 50-52.5 MHz range, published in Amateur Radio Magazine (Dec 2011). The antenna, featuring a raised driven element and a capacitive/DC connection using copper strips, maintains consistent VSWR and performance despite two years of weather exposure. The design utilizes inexpensive plumbing conduit for the boom and provides detailed construction guidelines, parts lists, and performance analysis through 4NEC2 simulations.
