Ch3 6-El FD-Yagi - OPTimized
Ch3 (60-66 MHz) 6-Element Folded-Dipole Yagi, Optimized with nikiml's Python Scripts, analyzed using 4nec2.
If using a Metal Boom, be sure to calculate Boom Corrections (see Yagi Intro webpage).

a) AWG12 Copper Wire:
On Ch3, Raw Gain = 9.6 to 11.2 on Ch3, F/B & F/R Minimum = 14.0 dB and SWR (300-ohms) Under 1.6.
Boom Length = 205.7-in.

b) Quarter Inch Copper Tubing (QICT) or Braided-Shield in RG-59 Coax (insulation can be left on).
On Ch3, Raw Gain = 9.6 to 11.2, F/B & F/R Minimum = 14.5 dB and SWR (300-ohms) Under 2.2.
Boom Length = 199.7-in.

Note there is very little difference between QICT and AWG12 versions.
