All Yagis in 28-Ohm-Technology, elements mounted with polyamid-clamps (Konni).Stacking of the Yagis will give excellent contest-groups. Picture right: 8x7-El.- built by Dirk, ON5GS Electrical details on the pages you see above, construction with "YO 7" by K6STI and "EZNEC+5.0" by W7EL 430-440MHz at SWR <1,8 (10 El. 430-438) , Boom 15x15mm or 20x20mm, Radiator 10mm, Elements 8mm or 6mm Left: Collection of 70cm-28-Ohm-Yagis built by DJ8QV |

Mounting of elements With these clamps the elements are mounted isolated 2-3mm above the boom. The screw has 3mm and is stainless steel. If you use other mounting methods, you must use the DL6WU-formula for boomcorrection! |
The boom correction uses the DL6WU-formula:
C = (12.5975-114.5 * B) * B * B
C=Correction factor for one element half (for full element x2) in wavelengths
B=Boom diameter in wavelengths
The following factors are for not-insulated mounting through the boom, if you mount the elements insulated through the boom (DJ9BV-method) or not-insulated above the boom, use the half correction factor.

The parallel 75-Ohm-Cables for the DK7ZB-Match (see other Webpage!) Length Lambda/4*V V=Velocity of propagation e.g. for Full-PE (RG-59) is 0,67 Foam-PE 0,81-0,82, PTFE 0,7
Use a good cable with a high screening effectiveness! |

Important: Use good quality cable, because cheap TV-cables have often not 75Ohm! Measurements show a resistance of 68, 70 and 80 Ohms for such cables...
