Finally, after 2 years, I have completed the rebuild of my Cushcraft 6M 5 element yagi. All repairs are made (see previous blog posts), it has been tuned, and broken back down to haul up the tower for installation...
Here's a pic with the antenna mounted on a temporary test tower section in the back yard for assembly and tuneup.
Here she is, broken down and ready for transport up the primary tower. I'll move on and get the next antenna repaired and bolted on the test tower. It's nice to finally get these antennas brought back to life from the scrap heap. The cost of this (re)build from the scrap pile was only about $10!
