G'day Almir! Wooohoooo! Congratulations on a fantastic build my friend. This is just absolutely awesome. WOW the DX you were hearing was incredible, and the noise is zero! Congrats on a great build buddy, and thanks so much for posting this video. This makes me so happy when I see an antenna like this working so well. Cheers my friend!
Hey Simon! You were a huge part of this gave me the inspiration for this project. I was happy with the results and for future projects. Again I want to thank you for your awesome videos! All the best for you my friend hope to hear you on air one day. 73's my friend!
I've been looking for a simple, portable 10M to use at our summer camp that has a lot of rules and regulations similar to an HOA. I'm going to give this a try. Nice build, thank you for sharing! 73 from Central NY
Thank you so much! My primary idea besides the design was to keep as light weight as possible. Lately I found that some aluminum bars for the boom is even lighter than pvc. Good luck with your projects, best 73's!
@@martinfischer5766 Hi Martin, this is where I got the idea for my delta loop www.bay-net.org/uploads/1/2/2/7/122774721/ki6oid_delta_loop.pdf , lately I found that if you deploy on horizontal plane is less material but you need the help from trees. The nice thing is that on 20m will resonate on 10m as well :}
Hello! Last summer in afternoon I received in 10M band several far station. As I suppose - it was radio stations on trucks or cars. One group of stations appeared and disappeared, then was second group of stations e.t.c. I used for it DEGEN-DE1103 with 7-8 meters of wire. I have NO license - I only had in past (it had burnt accidentally ) homemade AM/FM transmitter (5W) that I use for experiments with medium-wave and shortwave bands ))).
Great job! I love it when people experiment with different ways to make antennas. I have wanted to make one like Simon for a long time now but he beat me to it lol. 73
Nice Almir! Maybe an idea for another project. Cheap, effective, & practical... "Twin Delta" for 10m band! As you know each minute count during portable or mobile operation. 😉 73 de S51X
Hello from South Texas and great video! I've been wanting to make a 10m Yagi and you have given me some great info to start. Many thanks my friend and 73. KI5KGT
you know that you can do the opposite, have the dipole and a director instead of the reflector. That gives a little bit more gain but you sacrifice front to back rejection. I run a 2el using a dipole and director and it works very well also. Has more gain than a inverted V at the same height.

It would be a great project. But may I ask, is it possible to just use an ugly BALUN like I used in my rotary dipole? You know, RG58 wrapped around a PVC pipe.
@@VE3DAL Oh, okay. Well, that is what HAM is all about, experimenting to what ever may work. Thank you for sharing and all the best to you and your family. 73.
Hey Francisco thank you so much I appreciate! Continuing with your question. I'm new on ham radio but I believe the ugly balun is for RF noise reduction and not a impedance matching. For example I have a delta loop antenna for 10m on my backyard that antenna is about 112ohms so it needs a 1:1 balun to make approximately 50ohms both ends. Best 73's for you and your family my friend!
@@VE3DAL I copy that sir. I remember it now, some say that the ugly BALUN cuts off common mode current going back to the radio. Hope to catch you on 10 meters someday. 73, DW1QEW.
To start I followed the measurements on the description, then the tuning is done on the tips of the elements of the antenna like I did on my last video. 73's

Moved from Roch NY to DFW TX. In an HOA, so no outside antennas; this could be the ticket for the attic!
Great job Sir!! A true Ham operator.
Keep up the good work.

Ficou muito bem feita! Parabéns!
Hey Andre muito obrigado!

Lol. You still should try you will be surprised by the results. Thank you and Best 73's my friend!

Very cool, thank you for sharing what you've done.

Great job Almir and look forward to catching you on 10m soon ! 73s Gm4zji Chris

Thank you so much I appreciate! I love to hear that. I just finished one for 20m with loaded coils I will post a video next week. Best 73's my friend.
Thanks.
woohoo!
Nice idea for portable operation. Thanks for sharing your experience and measurements, What is spacing between driven elements and reflector?
Thank you so much I appreciate! The spacing between the two elements is six feet.
Отлично. А можно ,пожалуйста размеры бума и элементов для повторения
Driven elements: 2m.44cm x 2 = 4m.88cm
Reflector element: 5m.62cm
Boom 6 feet
Thank you!

I didn't know that, thank so much for the info. 73 my friend.
You're welcome! You can simulate the antenna in mmana software to give you an idea of the gain and radiation pattern.
nice job… great fun and success. congrats.. k0klb

Hello from California Almir, i can wait to make one my friend good idea 73 KF6VTV

I done that balun before with vertical antenna but I'm not sure if it works with yagi antennas. The one that I used it cost $20 only. 73's

how far are you getting with the yagi? I need something that will go 300-500 miles and does not go over the other person.
I got very far with this antenna Asian and Russian. 73's my friend.
cool!
Thank you so much!
Are these the telescopic fishing rods? Like the ones on Amazon?
Yes they are, the carbon fiber telescope.
Hello, which portable would you prefer for DX SOTA? Thanks, Martin!
Hello Martin. I would go for a delta loop or the yagi like this one which both are fairly easy to deploy. 73's my friend!
how do you know how long the elements should be?
To start I followed the measurements on the description, then the tuning is done on the tips of the elements of the antenna like I did on my last video. 73's
Kindly share the design of antena , ll
