Aerial positioning


Recommended Posts

Re: Single wire aerials...

Because these aerials are a "resonant length", and also more rigid than the "dangly wires" of old, the dead spots off the end tend to be sharper and deeper than 35 MHz receivers.

Having said that, they are much more efficient. Also the rate of data transmission is much higher than the old PPM / PCM systems, so any drop-outs tend to be of shorter duration. The way the data is transmitted is also much more robust than even PCM could achieve, so any drop-outs will be easier to disguise.

They may still happen, but you are unlikely to notice them - unless you scrutinise the RSSI logs carefully! wink
