First time out of the stable for my home-made 10m shortened folded Mini-Horse yagi as the 10m E propagation opened on 8 May 2021 across Europe from here in the UK. I was really impressed with the results on day #1, with lots and lots of contacts. I continued enjoying the DX on the Sunday too! 😁
This is an easy cheap build that can be packed away and brought out in as little as 10 minutes when the 10m DX is about 👍🏻 No need to rotate it either if you haven't got a rotator. Just stick it on a wooden pole and fix it in the direction you want and away you go!
The design and build videos for this antenna can be found here:

This is one of many amateur/ham radio related videos on my channel. Please feel free to browse 👀, like 👍🏻 and subscribe 🔔 (it's free!), remembering to hit the bell so you’re notified of new videos as soon as they're published and you don't miss out.
Thanks.
