I took a minute to look at the links, and I think the 6m yagi would have some problems with droop and the elements folding, BUT Don's idea has a lot of merit.
I think a 6m Halo's (round and square) could be very nicely done with a tape-measure & pvc construction. Also, a Moxon beam might be nicely done with very light weight supports and tape measure / wire / pvc construction… Niel WA7SSA On May 16, 2012, at 10:48 AM, Don Wilhelm wrote: > Kieth, > > How about a tape measure beam?
