Example VHF High Band Yagi

Here is the output for a five director Yagi cut for the center of the H-VHF band. This would be similar to an Antennacraft Y5713 or Y10713.

Construction is assumed to be based on a 1" square metal tube boom and 3/8" round tubing for the elements. The directors and driven element are not insulated from the boom. (The driven element is a folded dipole. Its' center point opposite the feed point contacts the boom.)
