2m three element Yagi<br />
A 3 element Yagi for 2m can be created with three IT adapters, two full<br />
Rotating Arm Kits, and six of the standard 5.5 foot whips. The complete<br />
parts list is shown below.<br />
1 Buddipole Deluxe antenna<br />
2 IT adapters (3)<br />
3 RAK bolt and knobs (3)<br />
4 Standard whips (5.5 foot) (6)<br />
5 22 inch arms (2)<br />
The assembly is similar to the 6m three element Yagi except that only<br />
two antenna arms are used instead of four. The two whips connected to<br />
the VersaTee are the driven elements (just like a regular dipole). See<br />
Figure 61. (The diagram is not to scale.)<br />

This antenna configuration produces a very well matched antenna (with<br />
SWR well below 1.5:1 for the entire 2m band) as shown in Figure 62.
