Review on πŸ“‘ Dual Band Outdoor Yagi Antenna, 2M 70CM VHF UHF 9.5/11.5dBi Directional Yagi 8 Elements 3 Sections for Amateur 2 Way Radio, Repeater System, 433MHz Device, Police Scanner by Alejandro White

Can be revised

SWR at 70 cm is good, close adjustment. However, after loosening the adjusting screws, the 2 m adjustment loosens noticeably. The problem is the lever that comes out of the match block. I carefully drilled out the head of the rivet, then used one of the four remaining screws to tighten the rivet by inserting it into the center of the rivet. This tightened the stem, but the SWR adjustment is an adjustment of the minimum SWR at the low end of the range rather than an adjustment of the used part of the range. I got it for use with the ISS repeater and it has an SWR of 1.2 at 145.990 and is lower over the whole 70cm band.
