Hexbeam Photo Gallery

This gallery shows photographs of the various HexBeam antennas I have constructed over the past couple of years. It is not meant to be a step-by-step guide to construction, but rather a potpourri of techniques which may give you some ideas for constructing your own HexBeam.

  • Centre post Reflector fixings

  • Centre post wire fixings

  • Preliminary testing

  • Final assembly

  • End spacing attachment

Preliminary tests were carried out on the 20m elements before the other band wires were added. The antenna is about 12ft above ground on a very temporary support. The XYL seems much more interested in the gardening than in the new antenna!
