4 element Yagi for 6m
6m band is sometimes called “magic band”. It has combined propagation properties of HF and VHF. When conditions are good, very long DXs are possible. Beside the sporadic E occurence some other requirements are essential. One of the most important pieces of equipment is good antenna. There is no shortcut for good performance in small package. Good antenna is big when lambda is long. For 6 meters, the antenna usually occupies about 3x3m floor area. Here’s my implementation based on Ljubisa Popa – POP YU7EF design EF0604S.
