Saturday Tech Session
For the March Technical Session on Saturday the 2nd, starting at 10:00am, I thought that we might have a look at some simple easy VHF/UHF antennas that I have made.
As there are a number of new members and others that are taking advantage of the cheap 2m/70cm Radios available at the moment, it might help them to make it into the repeaters using something with a bit of gain rather that the short rubber ducky sticks that usually come with the units when purchased.
Anybody else is welcome to bring their antennas as well. If there are any commercial units that people have, it would be good to have a look at them as well. I will have a Simple Vertical Dipole, a JPole, a Halfwave Flowerpot, and a RG58 Co-linear to
show you.
There will be some documentation on all of these and I should be able to provide
URL links for further information.
