70 cms 8-element Yagi Beam

Boom Length = 1.48 m. Boom diameter = 15mm x 15mm (square).
All Element diameter = 12mm. Driven Element = Folded Dipole

This Yagi should not need a balun as it will resonate under its own merit.

The above design has not just been drawn by myself. I have constructed this antenna a number of times and it WILL work and a V.S.W.R of less than 1 to 1.2 can be achieved.
