9 element OWL-G/T (4.95m long)

Optimised Wideband Low Impedance Super-Light Yagi for 144-145MHz For horizontal mounting

The OWL has been designed to have very close element spacing, this has increased the stability of the OWL over traditional low impedance Yagi’s.

The OWL G/T has been designed to achieve high gain levels while still producing very respectable sky temperature figures. This combination has resulted in class-leading G/T performance begin achieved.

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 to ensure they are within 0.2mm.

This antenna is made with a 1/2inch (12.7mm) and 3/8inch (9.525mm) diameter tube OWL loop and 1/2inch (12.7mm) elements with a wall thickness of 1.2mm. Boom is 3/4inch.
