That is to say if you have a 27-3 model put together as instructions and without the need to cut the SWR will be 1:1 from 27.200 to 27.800 |

Mine is an SY-3 (on the box) and this is the manual and for 27.5 it says cut. http://www.sirioantenne.it/product-manual/Id-098_10-09-2011.pdf If you don't, it is your own choice. |

Yep your right Geoff,it does say cut it but if you can adjust the element by sliding it and get the same result why cut it............................. So if cut mine for 27.500,what do i do if i want to then use it on 26.500 im .............................

And this is my last comment on this. To repeat. "More importantly is what model Andy has and what his instructions say." |

Thanks Dave. If you want to drill holes you could try that and shorten the elements that way. Depends if you are going to be floating about into amateur bands. I knew for fact I won't be so was cool for the cut. Chop Chop |

This is not relevant to the original post, which is getting the beam working nicely. The original poster says the antenna is an SY-3 in the topic title. |

It is relevant when your telling people how to use something that not so long back you said you had no idea how they worked and was not interested in using one .because if your giving out information you should at least know what you are talking about Edited by Nubster, Friday, 25.

I have owned myself, as many of my friends, the Sirio SY 27-3 Yagi. It is a little different to many other manufacturers, in the way the elements connect to the boom, but none in all the years I have been operating have ever needed to be cut. They are Italian antenna's, and so are tuned for the EU/CEPT frequencies (like all Sirio's), but you can adjust the gamma match to get them resonant slightly up/down the 11m band, which includes the 11m freeband section, and the UKFM 27/81 too. To be honest, if it is tuned for optimum SWR and Impedance at 27.500, then it will have a low enough SWR from 26.00 to 28.000 to be perfectly safe and usable across all of those frequencies, as mine and many of my friends were, as they do have quite a good bandwidth for a Yagi. Thank you Dave (OGGY) for the offer of help, it's members like you who really make this place the best group around

You don't need to cut it at all, there is a clue in the name SY27-3 "Sirio Yagi 27 megs-3 elements.". They are built for 11 meters and whilst can be used for 10 meters all the element spacings are wrong for that. Whilst a 1.1:1 VSWR is ideal for any antenna why do you think Geoff a 2:1 is so bad......maybe come back to me with just how many % of forward power is lost with that figure (you will be very surprised just how little is lost). Radio Amateurs with more than one band antennas would be jiggered without a tuner. The majiority of efficent antennas have a very narrow bandwidth and need a tuner at each end. For instance my Vortex Quasar 64 has a low VSWR on mid band and UKFM but I use a SEM Z Match for 10 meters on it. Thanks for the comment Nik I try to help where I can BTW I'd make the same offer on Transmission 1 Joking aside CT is certainly a good place for help Edited by Oggy, Friday, 25.
