ADMIN stop deleting the post without a reason!!! if you have problem DM me..
In this video we take a look at #howto #build a #QFH antenna for the @tinygs and @SatnogsOrgProject #communities, this #433mhz band antenna is a custom dielectrically loaded antenna which is the reason for its size reduction. this is a wanted attribute since some opperators do not have to option to install large antenna's outside the homes.
This is the first in a series of antenna's aimed at the Satellite tracking community and will be a work in progress untill the prefect option is found.
