The 6M8GJ Yagi is the culmination of many years and countless versions of the 40' Trip Yagi. Inspired by W7GJ who for years has tirelessly promoted 6M EME & DXepdition activity, the product bears his amateur call suffix "GJ". Computer optimized for the exact conditions we find in most DXpedition locations, a height of 20 to 30 feet, it turns out to be perfect for use at any height and in 2X or 4X array stacks.
Is it built strong enough for home use ? Yes in spades..Boom center sections are 2 1/2" dia. & the rest of the sections all telescope in 1/2" or 1/4" increments. The entire boom breaks down to a 2 1/2" x 5" x 43" bundle (just 1.09M long). It will survive horrible DXpedtion conditions (100MPH). Rugged 1/2" x 40" element center sections and 3/8" dia. tips mounted on machined, "slip on" element to boom clamps gaurantees this antenna will stay up for years to come. It is easy to assemble and breakdown and we will give you tips how to eliminate any field measurements on DXpedtions. Lastly, in the worst case scenario if you get to a location where it is impossible to put up the full 6M8GJ, we will give you a second set of dimensions allowing you to still get on the air with a hi performance short yagi still capable of EME and top terrestrial performance !
Optional items include: Canvas carry bag and portable 20 plus foot mast that telescopes as well and fits in the same carry bag with the antenna. The mast comes with dacron guys, slip ring and guy anchors.
