Post author By admin
Post date April 22, 2024

I love coming across innovative stuff in ham radio and this is no exception! This is the Fara-J Antenna made out of Faraday cloth/tape for the 2m band from Ben VE6SFX. It’s ideal for rapid, easy deployment and would work well for POTA and SOTA operators.
