This resource provides comprehensive instructions for constructing a 2 element quad antenna specifically designed for the 10, 12, and 15 meter bands. The antenna features a diamond configuration, which offers improved gain compared to a square configuration. The author shares insights into the materials used, including a square-aluminum boom and bamboo poles, along with construction techniques that ensure durability and optimal performance. This project is ideal for amateur radio enthusiasts looking to create their own antennas at home. In addition to construction details, the author discusses the antenna's performance, noting its effectiveness even at a height of 8 meters. The quad antenna reportedly performs comparably to a 3 element yagi, with excellent SWR readings and strong signal reports from European stations. This project is suitable for beginners and offers a cost-effective solution for those interested in enhancing their amateur radio setup with a homemade antenna.

The HB9CV-Beam is a 2-Element-Yagi with two driven elements and was introduced by Rudolf Baumgartner, HB9CV in the 1950ies. This beam antenna is a coax-feeded version of the ZL-Special construction by DK7ZB for 2m, 6m and 10m

Details the construction and optimization of antenna systems for amateur radio satellite operations, focusing on practical, homebrew solutions for VHF/UHF bands. It covers building _groundplane antennas_ from salvaged materials, recycling old beam antennas into new configurations like a 2-meter crossed yagi, and constructing a 10-meter horizontal delta loop. The resource also explains antenna matching techniques, including folded dipole driven elements and quarter-wave transformers, along with the importance of accurate SWR measurements and minimizing coax loss. Demonstrates how to achieve a **1:1 SWR** by carefully trimming elements and adjusting radial angles on groundplane antennas. It provides insights into selecting appropriate coax and connectors, highlighting the benefits of Belden 9913 for low loss and the proper installation of _N-connectors_. The article also addresses RFI mitigation from computer birdies and presents a design for a silent triac antenna control circuit, offering practical solutions for common satellite station challenges.

Complete plans and drawings to build a small 3 elements Yagi antenna for six meter band by Ken Willis

Examines the operational differences between **quad** and **Yagi** antenna designs, focusing on their respective performance characteristics for amateur radio applications. The document highlights key metrics such as forward gain, front-to-back ratio, and bandwidth, which are crucial for effective DXing and contesting. It discusses how element configuration, boom length, and material choices impact the efficiency and radiation patterns of each antenna type across various HF bands. Practical considerations for antenna builders are addressed, including structural integrity, wind loading, and overall weight, particularly when using fiberglass spreaders for quads. The resource also covers precipitation static reduction in quads due to their closed-loop design and their ability to operate efficiently at lower elevations compared to Yagis. It provides insights into dual-polarization feed systems for quads, offering independent vertical and horizontal feed points for enhanced operational flexibility.
