	Yagi-Uda antennas
		A Yagi-Uda antenna is familiar as the commonest kind of terrestrial TV antenna to be found on the rooftops of houses.
		This is because the antenna is connected via a feeder to a transmitter whose output level may be determined in terms of the voltage at its terminals.
		For moderately long Yagis with several directors, the reflector spacing and size has little effect on the forward gain, providing that there IS a reflector, but being close to the driving element it has a strong effect on the front-to-back ratio and on the driving point impedance of the antenna.

	What is Yagi antenna? - a definition from Whatis.com
		The Yagi is inherently a balanced antenna, but it can be fed with coaxial cable and a device called a balunat the point where the feed line joins the driven element.
		The driven element of a Yagi is the equivalent of a center-fed, half-wave dipole antenna.
		The antenna propagates electromagnetic field energy in the direction running from the driven element toward the director(s), and is most sensitive to incoming electromagnetic field energy in this same direction.

	Yagi Antenna Design (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The completed antenna presented an SWR of less than 1.2:1 at the operating frequency, and the impedance presented to the MFJ-259 test set was in the neighborhood of 70 ohms.
		Mounting the Yagi to a 1-1/4" aluminum pole is accomplished by drilling two 5/16" holes through the side of the boom at spacings which match those of the Radio Shack "U-clamp" antenna mounting bracket.
		While this type of antenna still hits the shack and close-in surrounding areas directly in front of the director element with a disruptively-strong RF field, it also provides one of the strongest signals in the favored direction toward which it is aimed, of any antenna design available.

	4.3 Yagi Antenna
		Nevertheless, Yagi antenna differs from traveling wave antennas in principle because the current distribution need not be the superposition of a single forward wave and a single backward one.
		Obviously, field on the surface of each antenna segment is influenced not only by currents and charges of the respective antenna element but too by currents and charges of other antenna elements.
		In case of two different antenna elements, the mutual impedance of segments is computed a similar way; moreover the mutual distance of antenna elements has to be included to the computation of the distance between two respective segments.

		The amount of gain is directly proportional to the length of the antenna array and not by the number of directors used.
		In most antenna designs, the feedline impedance will be 50 ohms, but usually the feedpoint impedance of the yagi is rarely 50 ohms.
		The amount of variation from the antenna's design specification goals that can be tolerated is subjective, and limits put into the design are mainly a matter of choice of the designer.

	Yagi Antenna -- from Eric Weisstein's World of Physics
		Yagi, a Japanese physicist who translated into English an antenna design based on a parallel array of dipole antennas.
		(However, it is said that the actual design of the antenna was invented by a professor Uda.) The design involves placing a slightly longer dipole behind, and a slightly shorter dipole in front of, the driven dipole to direct the radiation in the direction of the longer-to-shorter elements.
		Today, Yagi antennas usually have several of the shorter ("director") elements and one of the longer ("reflector") elements separated by a small fraction of the wavelength of the driven element (about 1/10).

		While a directional antenna showing between 12 and 15db gain is impressive, it's also pretty large, physically.

	The Optimized Wideband Array Yagi
		In a monopole antenna, the increased radiation resistance is extremely useful in matching the antenna to a feedline.
		Because the OWA yagi uses a direct dipole feed, the driven element must be split in the center as well as insulated from the boom.
		The antenna was re-optimized in the stack in order regain the excellent F/B but the VSWR had to be sacrificed in order to meet this goal although it is still under 1.6 across the band.

	13 element Yagi Antenna for 2
		The reflector is simply a rectangular piece of sheet aluminium 5cm x 8cm, supported from the rear with a triangular support which in turn is bolted to the boom.
		Modelling a yagi with nec-2 shows that the design is fairly tolerant of errors to the position and length of the directors providing that each director is larger than the one in front.
		I predicted that the antenna would probably perform better on the lower channels because the balun was a little long.

	The Ultimate Guide to 11 Meter CB Antennas
		The study of Yagi antennas on the computer has produced some outstanding new Yagi designs and shed some light on the key dimensions of Yagi performance.
		The initial design was based on a 4 element Yagi for 24Mhz (12 Meter Ham Band) from the 19th edition of the ARRL Antenna Book (which also contains great detail on the physical construction of Yagi antennas).
		With some adjustment of the boom length, element spacing and element length this antenna is transformed into a very potent performer, due to its new found ability to "reject" signals from unwanted directions better.

		Spacing is on the antenna bar holding the elements, with equidistant spacing from each of the outside elements to the driven element.
