A presentation of the Yagi Antennas, and other interesting tid-bits by Brian Mileshosky. The document provides an in-depth exploration of the Yagi-Uda antenna, detailing its historical development, design principles, and performance characteristics. Originally described in the 1920s, the Yagi antenna features a driven element and parasitic elements, including reflectors and directors, which collectively determine its behavior. The document highlights how element lengths, diameters, and spacing influence gain, impedance, and directivity. It also discusses the antenna's reciprocal nature and presents data on typical gain values for various element configurations. Additionally, the text covers practical considerations, such as the construction of a "Tape Measure Yagi" for amateur use, and touches on related antenna types like dipoles and their application in Near Vertical Incident Skywave (NVIS) communication.

How do two-wire reversible direction Beverages work, an excellent document that explains fundamentals of beverage antennas. This article details the design and performance of a reversible beverage antenna. Leveraging orthogonality between common mode and differential mode currents on a 2-wire line, this antenna facilitates independent reception from both ends. While common mode signals arrive and are summed on a transformer's secondary for common mode reception, differential mode signals induce anti-phase currents, providing individual reception. Various measurements explore impedance, transmission loss, and F/B ratio, highlighting the antenna's effectiveness and areas for improvement. Notably, increasing the antenna's height significantly improved performance.
