5 element low-noise LFA-3 third generation LFA Yagi

The LFA-3 is a result of many years of optimisation honing resulting in a wide-spaced Yagi with all the associated benefits of the original LFA with higher gain per foot of boom.

It provides a low-noise front-end for your radio so you hear more weak signals. The 5 element 50Mhz LFA-3 provides stunning performance across the important section of the 6m band (50.00 - 50.300MHz) with excellent gain levels for its size.

The antenna is made with 16mm centre elements that have 13mm diameter outer tip sections. the boom is made from 40mm square tube with a wall thickness of 2mm, a boom guy is supplied. The antenna has fully insulated elements which will ensure continuous. Boom to mast brackets are included with the antenna which will support 2 inch (50mm) masts.

The antennas are constructed with the best quality materials in order that the best mechanical construction can be achieved, even a digital caliper is used (with an accuracy of .01mm) to measure the elements during production.
