10 Meter 4 Element Quad Antenna
N4TUX Boyd’s 10 Meter Quad Antenna
Dimensions:
Formulas:
- Reflector Loop Length (4 X L1 side) = 36′ 0″
- Driven Loop Length (4 X L2 side) = 35′ 1″
- Director Loop Length (4 X L3 side) = 34′ 0″ (2 each)
- Reflector: 4 X L1 = 1030 / F (MHz)
- Driven Element: 4 X L2 = 1005 / F (MHz)
- Directors: 4 X L3 = 975 / F (MHz)
Spacing between elements = 10 ft. Elements are centered on a boom.
An rf choke balum is recommended. 8 turns, 8inch diameter of 50 ohm coax placed 1/4 wavelength down from the driven element
