The Case For Stealth, And Not So Stealthy Antennas

Witty, entertaining, and helpful describe Tom’s (W9IPR) presentation. Stealth antennas are compromises, but a compromise antenna is better than no antenna at all. That said, some compromisers are better than others. Tom’s presentation, which can be found in total at:

touches on just about every conceivable stealth option, along with some not so stealthy options as well. If Tom piqued your interest, it just might be time to dust off that ARRL antenna book, or better yet, Google the web for more information on the subject.

 

Outstanding Job Andrew!

Typical of Andrew, half measures just don’t cut it. His presentation on QSL cards was no exception. He thoroughly researched his topic, created simple, yet effective graphics to get his message across, then delivered it with poise. First rate!
