[Wswss] YU7EF computer optimized 10 element yagi for 6m

[Lance Collister, W7GJ]

Recently, there has been quite a bit of interest around the world in 6m EME and 
larger antennas for that band.  YU7EF has recognized the interest and has added 
element lengths for 1/2" diameter tubing to the metric options shown for his popular 
10 element yagi:

You will note that the 10mm diameter tubing size is already very close to our 
standard 3/8" tubing size.  Of course, if you are really serious about making it bomb 
proof, you could use solid elements like ON4KST did:

As far as I can tell, they seem to work very well...I have worked UN8GC, ON4KST and 
HL4GHT on 6m EME, all of whom were using that yagi.  I also am aware of two other 
stations currently building 4 yagi arrays with these.  Pop has offered to provide 
additional photos and suggestions to anyone who has further questions about 
construction of these proven antennas.
