AN ANTENNA TOUR AT VE6JW DURING 1980 TO 2005

 

The first VHF antennas used after arrival in Edmonton were the NBS design 7 element 6M Yagi brought from New York followed by four KLM Yagis were used for 2M EME. Both systems were tornado scrambled in 1987 after they were moved to Namao

 

 

Then the 1987 Tornado came along!

 

 

 

Four Yagi 5wl Msq for 2M EME and Eight Rutland Yagis for 70CM EME

 

 

 

 

An 80 thru 6M Rhombic, Ladder Line Fed, and a12 Foot Dish for 23CM

 

 

 

The eight 5wl Msq Yagis Installed in 1986 For 2M EME Worked Great.....

 

 

 

Until the Tornado Disaster of 1987

 

 

 

Eight 2M Yagis after the storm changed some of the polarity.
