 Element Diameter

Iis 1,8 MM, this is “bare” copper wire. WITHOUT THE ISOLATION.

This wire is also known as 2,5mm2 (the black wire used in house electrical wiring)

DO NOT USE OTHER DIAMETERS

 Element distances:

Reflector to radiator = 2,1 Meter

Reflector to director 1 = 4,2 Meter

Element length:

(per side so total length x 4)

Reflector = 2,88 Meter

Radiator = 2,786 Meter

Director =  2,706 Meter

 

FEEDING THE ANTENNA:

The antenna has a 50 ohm impedance. It can be direct fed. (1-1 balun is preffered).
