Helix 435mhz uhf
It's actually 9.25 turns, including the quarter-turn impedance transformation to get a 50 ohm feed
Helix antenna design and construction details
Design frequency MHz, Number of turns, Turn spacing, wavelengths
Helix antenne
We decided to put it to the test and build a PVC helix for a 'too high' frequency. Then we wanted to redetermine the center frequency. 2430 MHz is approximately 67% of 3620 MHz. So that will be the design frequency that we give to HelixCalc

23cm Yagi Antenna building Finished antenna at 1275 MHz SWR under 1:1.5 at resonant frequency
50 MHz preamp Gain 26dB with the BFG135 Preamps for 144 and 430 MHz, for 50 MHz, the BFG135a is a cheap transistor and in my view rather strong. It is not easily damaged by static discharge or RF power. FG connection
30 Volt Computer Power Supply Stack A bonus was that i discovered that these did not need a standby load connected to the supply to keep them running just apply mains power and close the Start lead to ground
