A 14 elemets yagi antenna for 432 MHz based on DK7ZB design

A suitable high gain 70cms antenna for SOTA operation was sought that did not have the drawbacks of a long Yagi antenna, principally a narrow beamwidth and bandwidth.

Antenna was designed for SO-50 satellite operation but can be used for any VHF/UHF activity. It's a mix of a Moxon Antenna and a Yagi antenna. It has gains 4 dBd on 2m and 6.5 dBd on 70cm bands and it is fed via single 50 Ohm cable.

70cm-Longyagis in 28Ohm-DK7ZB-Design

Demonstrates the design and construction of a 9-element Yagi antenna for the **70 cm band** (432 MHz), based on the DK7ZB concept. The resource details EZNEC+ calculations for a single antenna, providing gain, sidelobe suppression, and front-to-back ratio figures. It also presents a comprehensive analysis of stacking two such antennas, including optimal stacking distance (1000 mm) and the resulting performance enhancements for the stacked array, such as an increased gain of 17.03 dBi. The article includes detailed drawings, wire file dimensions in millimeters, and azimuth/elevation plots for both single and stacked configurations. Practical construction steps are documented with original photographs, illustrating element mounting, the **28 Ohm matching system** using two quarter-wave 75 Ohm transmission lines, and the critical N-connector wiring. It also covers the iterative process of fine-tuning the driven element length to achieve a return loss of 20 dB, validating the EZNEC+ simulation results with actual measurements.

On this page is the design for Dual Band 2M / 70cm antenna with 3.2mm elements. The antenna has a 50 ohm designed driver. This Yagi has a unique element called a Open Sleeve

The Construction Principles for Duoband-Yagis 2m/70cm by DK7ZB

A 70cm and 2m 6 elements yagi antenna plan based on the IEEE Transactions on Antennas and Propagation

The antenna is a VHF side is a 2m moxon, tuned on 145.825 MHz. The driven element of the moxon couples to a driven element for a 5 element 70cms Yagi, tuned on 436.5 MHz.

Yagi with 5 Elements on 2 m, 8 Elements on 70cm and one Feedpoint by DK7ZB

On this page are designs for Dual Band 2M / 70cm antennas. All antennas are 50 ohm designed driver. These Yagis have a unique element called a Open Sleeve. 4 Element 5 element and 9 element Dual Band - 2M / 70cm antenna projects

6m/2m/70cm Yagi Antenna Built from Old TV Antenna This turned out to be a great little antenna. It works the 6 meter, 2 meter and 70 centimeter bands. You can use one common feedpoint or two seperate feedpoints depending on how you would like to connect this antenna to your transceiver.

This home made antenna provides around 10.5dBd gain on 70cm, and 6.5dBd gain on 2m, which is more than adequate to work the FM satellites with a handheld dual band radio

A fun little project I did over a couple of days was making this little 6 element yagi for 70cm. There are so many designs and ways one can do this so after some reading of different designs and measurements

10 Elements Cross-Yagi Antenna for 433 MHz. The base of the 10el antenna is the recalculated RA6FOO antenna.Circular polarization is realized - by a phasing quarter-wave line, matching of horizontal and vertical polarization antennas

Construction of an antenna for experimental satellite communication, 8el. (435 Mhz) x 4el. (145 Mhz) Satellite Yagi crossed. No difficulty to built this antenna. Except the gamma match. that requires a little more attention

Duoband Yagi 2m/70cm with 4 Elements on 2 m and 5 Elements on 70 cm and one Feed point. The 4-El.-Ultralight-Yagi for 2m can be used on 70cm with an SWR of 1,5 without any changes.

An ingenious portable satellite antenna designed for the IC-705. Addressing its lack of full duplex, the IC-705’s Split Mode enables FM satellite communication, with memory channels programmed for Doppler correction. The antenna combines a 2m Moxon and 70cm Yagi for mechanical simplicity and a single feed point, ideal for handheld use. Built with 3D-printed parts, TIG welding rods, and PVC pipe, it’s lightweight, transportable, and effective. STL files and detailed instructions ensure easy replication for enthusiasts.

This is a plan for an optimized element UHF Yagi Antenna for UHF Bands featuring a 9dBd forward gain, a 13 dB front-back ratio, and a bandwith of 10 MHz on the 430-440MHz range.
