Folded Dipole radiator
Designed by: HPSD version 1.01 Nov 2011
Boom length: 1,74 Meter
Gain: 7,2 dBI (@27,555 Mhz)
FB <26 dB
FR <22 dB
Impedance: 50 ohms, direct fed
SWR below 1:1.1 > 150 Khz.

Above the azimuth plot. In 7,2 dBI
Above the freespace elevation plot
Above the Gain / Front to Back / Front to rear response.
All elements are made out of 25mm, 20 and 16 mm
The 25mm is the centerpiece and 2 meter long,
The 20mm is 1 meter long and is inserted 15cm inside the 2 meter tube. (85cm visible)
The 16mm tube is inserted in the 20mm tube and needs to be as long as the total element length.
Do not change dimensions, and be precise !
Distances:
Reflector – Radiator = 0,425 Meter
Reflector- Director1 = 1,74 Meter
Length:
Reflector: 2,845 Meter x 2 (total 5,69 meter)
Radiator: 2,635 Meter x2 (total 5,27 Meter)
Director: 2,51 Meter x2 (total 5,02 Meter)
The folded dipole elements are 11cm seperated.
The antenna is 50 Ohms direct fed, NO MATCHING LOSSES !
A RF CHOKE IS A MUST FOR ALL TYPES OF YAGI’S !
