Cutting Copper for 6m LFA Yagi
Here is a step by step photo album showing how I prepared home center copper pipe for use in a three element Loop-Fed-Array Yagi-Uda antenna (aka LFA Yagi Antenna).

Here is a step by step photo album showing how I prepared home center copper pipe for use in a three element Loop-Fed-Array Yagi-Uda antenna (aka LFA Yagi Antenna).
The Coplanar Loop Fed Array (LFA) Yagi-Uda design from G0KSC provides an excellent design foundation for an all copper version of a 3 element 6m balunless beam with superior front to back performance. Shown are comparisons between model simulations and prototype measurements.
The clever application of the folded dipole loop, computer science iteration techniques and NEC simulation to Yagi-Uda design results in a panoply of practical planar Loop Fed Array, LFA Yagi antenna recipes.
