UTARC 2002 Satellite Antennas

The first two satellite antennas at N5XU are a small four-element end-mounted yagi for 146 MHz donated to the club by George K5TR, and an eight-element cross-yagi for 435 MHz donated to the club by Robert K5PI.
A view of the new satellite antennas in front of the main N5XU tower.
The linearly-polarized yagi for 146 MHz was mounted at a 45 degree angle on the fiberglass boom because it looked cooler. These antennas actually got the club on the air and wwere used for a while before a better two meter antenna could be found.
