UHF 437Mhz optimized 8-el Quagi PVC Antenna

This is a high gain linear polarized UHF antenna that uses PVC pipe as a boom. The brackets should make this design much more manageable and rugged than what I've resorted to in the past.

The posted sims are with the 6th element missing, because it wouldn't fit on my design... I posted a model for an extension that fits, but I have yet to operate the antenna with it installed. The gain should increase slightly to 12.2 dBi with all elements present (which is probably overly optimistic).
