With the goal of producing and easier to construct driven element for a 70cm band Yagi than the more difficult to construct folded dipole the Half Folded Dipole or J-Dipole popularised by Kent Britain W5VJB was selected as a more simpler to construct alternative.
This interpretation of Kent’s design is an all-Aluminium construction and consistent with my previous construction techniques used for the 5 element 70cm band Yagi that allow for ease of construction, experimentation and optimisation of the antenna.
