TDY - Take-Down-Yagi

My latest take-down-yagi - TDY is a done deal, and its all that I ever wanted when it comes to a portable high performance 2 meter yagi for using with my HT's.

As far as assembling the antenna for use, it takes 30 seconds tops.

There is not another takedown yagi around that can be assembled that quick.
The other takedown yagi's in my antenna arsenal take from 2 minutes to 5 minutes to assemble.

If you were wondering what the small black and red device is, it is a prototype element winder allowing me to quickly store the antenna elements for maximum compactness when I am done using the antenna.

I now have a slightly different design for the element winder that has proven to be more efficient at winding the elements, when placing the antenna in its storage pouch.
