About This Instructable

This antenna w ill extend the range of your WiFi or 2.4GHz devices (like surveillance cameras) into many miles and kilometers. A yagi antenna is basically a telescope for radio w aves. I tired the pringle can antenna and the Yagi beats it hands dow n in performance.

Right off the bat the one individual that asked about having his modem in the basement with a rotating antenna on the roof needs a reality check. Overlooked in the connecting the USB dongle to the antenna was the transmission line length, for these frequencies it should be as short as possible and a multiple of 1/2 wavelength I'd suggest as close to 2.41 inches as one could manage (use a small diameter 50 ohm coax). Take the dongle apart and connect a USB extension cable to it and mount it directly on the antenna assembly. Paper clips vs copper, at this frequency it's not going to make much difference, however the specific model was generated using 14awg copper. Someone said glue it all to cardboard then cover it with more cardboard actually a strong and stable design, original author said build around popsicle sticks(wooden), both are subject to absorbing moisture from the air and either can have a poor dielectric constant, I would suggest some kind of plastic (they make popsicles with plastic sticks). The lengths of the elements, the spacing between them, and keeping them all in the same plane and parallel to each other is the most important consideration. The driven element, #2 in this design: that one I would make from 14awg copper, I'd make a simple dipole rather than a folded dipole, I would take two pieces of wire make 90 degree bends in them cut the bent part to about 1/8 inch and attach my transmission line. Take a piece of heat shrink cut two notches in it about 1/4 inch apart and insert the wires into it and shrink it, maybe reinforce the space in the center (break a tooth from my comb and stick it in the middle before heating the shrink?) cut it down to the correct overall length and insert it last. If you use the folded dipole make sure the folded part is perpendicular to the plane of the rest of the antenna and use 300 ohm twin lead to connect to the dongle, but your SWR will probably be much higher, reducing your effective gain and possibly resulting in early failure of the dongle. Horizontal vs vertical, after you have your antenna connected and have connected to some network you can try rotating it about its horizontal axis to see if you can get a better aspect on the other antenna (more bars). All in all though good job to Biotele, it's cheap, it's easy, and if done right will provide excellent results. I did not build this

Anyone with experience of reflections from the coax itself? I built a 4-element vertically polarized 850-MHz Yagi antenna. With the coax dangling haphazardly from the boom (/member behind, there seemed to be tremendous problems. These problems seem to disappear by /dbartley /) looping the coax behind from boom to the mast, forming ROUGHLY another half reflector.

dbartley (/member/dbartley/) in reply to dbartley May 20, 2012. 4:27 AM The ARRL Antenna Book (Chapter 27, 1991) describes (/member this problem of antenna /dbartley /) currents on the transmission lines somewhat. The outside of the coax is actually part of the antenna, being directly attached to an active antenna element, though it is perpendicular in this region. But also its metal further back interacts inductively with other antenna elements in its vicinity. Directing the coax back along the boom, with a large loop (about 1.5 wavelengths) behind and down to the wooden mast improves reception consistency somewhat, rather than haphazard arrangement. But the ideal loop seems to be obtained from the tightest possible. Because of the peculiar geometry and the lack of actual measurement rather than qualitative evaluation, it's hard to understand why this is.
