Tape Measure Yagi Antenna
Description
This is a remix of https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2766301. I enlarged the clamp holes to accept 6-32 machine screws. I added 6-32 threads to the bottom piece of the clamp that slides over the PVC pipe. I added a slot to the side of the tips so the elements could be folded back and clipped onto the element. I also made a feed point cover for the driven element. In building the antenna I found the 1/2" PVC pipe needs to be schedule 40. One of the big box stores had 1/2" PVC pipe that was NOT schedule 40 and the clamp wouldn't fit onto the pipe. I used 3/4" 6-32 screws to join the two halves of the clamps. The dimensions for the antenna are at https://xwarn.net/2022/01/04/joe-leggio-wb2hol-tape-measure-antenna/. Edit - 11-September-2022: Added a flat feed point cover.
