Homemade 70cm Yagi Beam Antennas. Post #1108.
If you can't view this video, please insert this title URL into your browser search box: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1WI6Cy4ovig. Here are two excellent examples of 70 cm Yagi beam antennas made from commonly available materials. The first antenna is a 7-element beam with a wooden support structure, while the more polished 10-element beam uses aluminum to support the antenna elements. Both antennas, along with a sturdy rotator atop a small mast, will give you excellent performance between 430-440 MHz (70 cm). You can cut the antenna elements to conform to the 70 cm allocations in your area. Video supplied by M0UKD).
