Yagi Antenna

To build the Yagi Antenna we used:


Aluminium square tube( side: 1cm, length: 1m)- 1 piece
Cylindrical pipe( diam: 8mm, length: 1m)- 2 pieces
Cylindircal aluminium bar( diam: 8mm, length: 1m)- 1 piece
Shielded coaxial cable( impedance: 50ohm, length: 3m)- 1 piece
Metric screws(diam: 3mm, length: 30 mm)- 10 pieces
Metric nuts( diam: 3mm)- 10 pieces
Metric washer(diam: 3mm)- 10 pieces
Technical details:
Yagi design frequency =434.10 MHz
Wavelength =691 mm
