Abstract: In a log-periodic monopole antenna array of the type described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,286,268, each antenna of the array having active elements spaced over the top surface of a ground structure and grounded parasitic elements interspersed between the active elements, the improvement of means for mechanically and electrically connecting the parasitic elements to a non-solderable ground structure comprising an elongated block compressed into a correspondingly shaped groove in the structure. Screw means threadedly engage the ground structure in a direction transversely of the top surface thereof and abut against the block. The lower strip portion of the parasitic elements is disposed in the groove between the block and a groove side wall and is compressed therebetween when the screw means is tightened into the structure and against the block.
