This is a 4 element 15, 6 element 10 meter dual-band beam on a 30' boom at a height of 83' designed using NEC2. The 10 meter driven is capacitively from the 15 meter driven element, without direct coupling. The elements are secured using the DXE element-to-boom insualated clamps, and the balun is a DXE 1:1. It has a very clean pattern, and good BW both on 10 & 15m. This antenna required no additional tuning and follows the NEC2 analysis directly. The whole antenna cost less than $150 to build.
