If you do not have the added 6 meter element it should be a worthwhile addition. I think it makes the 3 element antenna
a 4 element antenna on 6 meters and greatly improves the F/B ratio and adds a small gain. I have not added this
to my Yagi, since I seldom have operated on 6 meters, but it looks like it may be possible to add it to the boom
from the top of the tower without much trouble since it is not too far out from the mast. At one time I think the cost
was less than $100, but probably you could build your own element if you have aluminum scrap antennas.
Just an idea, since every dB helps. Rick KL7CW
