GTV 50-6m Yagi   with bent Driven Element

This is medium length 6m band Yagi with high F/B and good G/T. The bent DE (K6STI style) transforms from low impedance to 50 ohms
at feed point for direct feed.

GTV 50-6m at BG9MM





GTV 50-6m built by BG5TOX, Xu Da et al.

Stacking

2 x vertical GTV50-6m:
Elevation plot at 50.3 MHz

At 100 percent of distance per DL6WU formula:

Stacking Dist.    DL6WU Formula
H-plane               6.245 m
E-plane               7.549 m

Free space and with lower Yagi at 10 m above 'perfect ground'

  


At 90 percent of distance per DL6WU formula:

Stacking Dist.    DL6WU Formula
H-plane               5.621 m
E-plane               6.794 m
