DG7YBN GTV-11W

To relax from building 25 element antennas I build 11 element antennas instead.
Building 4 of the DG7YBN GTV-11W to SM7EOI who is rebuilding his antenna setup.
Uses the same concept as my 25 elements using 4mm element through the boom with plastic insulators.
Where short of N bulkhead connectors for RG142 so I used semirigid 141 Cable instead.
Compared to simulation the built antenna corrolates very well.


First antenna built and tuned


Dipole Construction and antenna mount.



Good matching



VSWR plot exactly as simulated.
