Decided to build my first yagi today in an effort to get a good TCP/IP link over packet to my friend several miles away. Instead of buying one, I thought it would be a good idea to build one from things I had laying around. This was a fun project to do, and was easier than I thought. It ended up having a 1.6 SWR on the 2m Simplex frequency here in the U.S.
