Beamwidths are pretty TIGHT using this Antenna!

Post author By admin
Post date December 10, 2021

This band has been under threat in VK, so a few of us in VK7 have gotten 3.4 GHz (9cm) transverters to get active and use the band! In this video I demonstrate the Non LOS path tests we were doing this (bouncing signals off mountains) using our gridpack antennas. We’re aiming to have 9 active stations on 9cm!

Paul shares his photos, experiences and life living and working down one of the most remote places on earth.

Filmed at the Radio and Electronics Association of Southern Tasmania:
