Try orienting the yagi horizontally. That should increase side rejection of
the offending signal.

Subject: [Repeater-Builder] UHF LINK ANTENNA QUESTION HELP NEEDED!
To: [email protected]
Date: Sunday, September 28, 2008, 1:00 AM
Can anyone please offer me some assistance.
I am trying to link my VHF repeater to a club machine on 440 MHZ.
For now I received permission to link directly on their input until
the club installs a remote base and yagi next spring.
There repeater is about 20 air miles away. I am using a 5 element UHF
Yagi about 45 feet up a 170 Rohn 65 at my hub site!
The Yagi is facing due West. The link works fantastic with 5 watts
however I am receiving a 440 MHZ repeater on the same input over 100
air miles away to the South. 90 degrees off the side of the Yagi.
So my question is. Any input to solve this antenna related problem to
Buffer that weak signal from the south?
Any move of the antenna lowering, different antenna etc...
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. ...
