Structural and magnetic properties of Y(Fe{sub 0.8}M{sub 0.2}){sub 11.3}Nb{sub 0.7} compounds with M=Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Al, and Ga have been investigated. The x-ray diffraction patterns of aligned samples show that, for M=Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, the compounds exhibit easy axis anisotropy while for M=Al and Ga the compounds have planar anisotropy. The anisotropy fields of Y(Fe{sub 0.8}Mn{sub 0.2}){sub 11.3}Nb{sub 0.7} increase monotonously with decreasing temperature. The influence on the Curie temperature and the magnetization due to the various substitutional atoms are discussed. {copyright} {ital 1997 American Institute of Physics.}
