Constructing a linear focus parabolic antenna for WiFi operation involves precise metalwork, as detailed in this project. The author, AB9IL, shares a build that can be completed in a few hours, emphasizing the hands-on process of shaping and assembling metal components. This design aims to provide enhanced signal range for 2.4 GHz wireless networks, a common challenge in many ham shacks and home setups. The project outlines the practical steps required, from initial measurements to the final assembly, including cutting, bending, and bolting various metal parts. While specific gain figures are not provided, the parabolic design inherently offers significant _directional gain_ compared to omnidirectional antennas, making it suitable for point-to-point links or extending network coverage over distances. The construction process focuses on readily available materials and basic shop tools, aligning with the DIY spirit prevalent in amateur radio. This antenna project is presented as a straightforward build, requiring attention to detail in fabrication to achieve optimal performance.
