I am attempting to build an antenna for a scanner setup similar to this https://www.qsl.net/n4yek/scanner/antenna.pdf
However I have changed the dimensions mainly in the hopes to improve the gain and to use up some old things I have just laying around.
The center is 150Mhz - 49.1" 5/8 wave. UHF is 450Mhz - 16.4" 5/8 wave. And finally 800Mhz -9.22" mainly I guess I am asking am I on the right Track? and where exactly should the 800Mhz go? Sorry it has been a very long time and my math and memory is not what it used to be. Also reason for use of said items is I have an NMO mast mount and the NMO base with 30" radials at my disposal.... The coil base has been gutted and modified for thru feed.
