23cm circuit board yagi antenna

Post by VK2HRX »

I want to add a better than rubber duckie antenna to my portable 23cm rig for SOTA/portable use.
Does anyone have a layout for a circuit board type one they want to share with me?

Compton,

Have a look at the WA5JVB site, especially http://www.wa5vjb.com/pcb-pdfs/Yagi1250.pdf

He has some great designs for yagis and LPs using various types of PCB substrate.

Quite a few of us use the 2 - 10Gh LP board.

CHeers

Hi Peter,

Yes my searching spotted that site. I was looking for the next bit, the PCB drawing to scale so I could make one. Anyway I ordered 3 for $6 USD EA plus postage $10.
