Ben, KB9LIQ, has a question on antenna height and gain. He is wondering if the height of two antennas is the same would the gain effect their performance. Will the gain really wouldn’t help if the antenna wasn’t too high?

Something that I’ve never heard from other preppers: An instruction manual on how to deal with emergencies, SHTF scenarios, or collapse and the tools you’ll need to rebuild your life, reclaim your property and hopefully recover when society returns to some normalcy.
I was sent a very innovative Roll-Up J-Pole antenna from VF Comms. It’s called the Fara-J and it used EMP Cloth as the radiator. Let’s see how well it performs! https://vfcomms.com/shop/antenna/fara-j-antenna/

Amazing video of Bob hearing himself for the first time when his signal bounced off the moon! We have to try this one day. Bouncing your signal off the moon is called Earth-Moon-Earth (EME). I think this is really great fun. Fabulous! Callum.
