This compact 3 element 18Mhz LFA provides stunning performance across the whole 17m band (18.00 - 18.200MHz). Hard to beat with a direct 50 Ohm feedpoint and no matching losses and suppression of unwanted noise !! More information on the LFA Yagi can be found here. NOTE: With All our HF antennas we can custom design your element taper and element size requirements in order to cater for all weather and installation requirements This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.

Performance Gain: 8.53dBi @ 18.110MHz F/B: 18.38dB @ 18.110MHz Peak Gain: 8.3dBi Gain at 17m above Ground: 13.76dBi @ 18.110MHz Peak F/B: 19.21dB Power Rating: 5kw SWR: Below 1.3.1 from 18.000 - 18.200MHz Boom Length: 4.954m Stacking Distance: 6 -14m (10m recommended) 2 Stacked Gain @ 10m spacing: 11.41dBi 2 Stacked F/B: 15.83dB 2 Stacked Gain @ 10m Spacing 17m above ground: 16.37dBi Weight: 9.15Kg / 20LB Turning Radius: 4.941m / 16.2ft Wind Loading: 0.45 Square Metres / 4.85 Square feet Wind Survival: 160KPH / 100MPH - A 125MPH (HD) version is available upon request Other options available if higher wind loading/survival is required.
Specification This antenna is made with element that taper from 7/8 inch (22.23mm) then 3/4 inch (19.05mm) to 5/8 inch (15.88mm) tg 1/2 inch (12.7mm) and 3/8 inch (9.525mm) outer elements. The antenna has fully insulated elements which will ensure continuous, high performance for many years to come. Boom to mast brackets are included with all antennas which will support 2 inch (50mm) masts. Boom is 1.5 inch square 16SWG aluminum. Our antennas are constructed with the best quality materials in order the best mechanical construction can be achieved, not the cheapest and most profitable! Even a digital caliper is used (with an accuracy of .01mm) to measure the elements during production to ensure they are within 0.2mm of what they should be, this ensures they work as well as our software model predicts (VHF). Note: much development time has gone into our antennas, not just on basic electromagnetic design, we are able to model the effect of insulators, booms and other objects to ensure the make up or our antennas have least effect on performance and pattern degradation.
