This copper-foil Yagi antenna might not do everything, ... [Ben] had bigger fish to fry: he wanted to build a directional antenna for the 2-meter band and go for distance.

Yagi’s are great gain antennas for the home builder, I built a 2 meter, 5 element beam out of old TV antennas that I harvested for parts, and the SWR only goes from 1.2 to 1.4 across the band ...

Instructable user Biotele posted a guide to build just such a unit out of craft ‘popsicle’ sticks and paperclips, using just glue, scissors, pliers and a soldering iron for tools. "The performance was ...

Well, I've been doing a bit of digging, and I've decided on my design, measurements, and construction techniques, with only one thing remaining for my YAGI design - The reflector.I simply can't ...

In these studies, the authors investigate single optical Yagi–Uda antennas in which they use nanorods, nanodisks, core-shell particles and nanospheres as building elements of the antenna.

I've constructed hundreds of antennae in the past. Bowtie dipole arrays, biquads, parabolic reflector dipoles, straight up yagi, logarithmic yagi, log periodic, heliacal and simple 1/4 whips.
