In the Spring, a young ( or old ) man's fancy turns to antennas.

Looking around in the garage, I find a 24 foot 2 inch diameter thick 
wall boom from an old Tri-band Moseley TA-36.

Thoughts are to extend the boom on each end by 3 to 6 feet and go for an 
eight element Yagi around 30 to 36 foot in length.

Does anyone have recommendations for a Long Boom Yagi on SIX ?


Thanks !

I run 9 elements on a 30ft BOOM Don.
But in my honest opinion it's a bit to many elements for a 30ft boom.
