[NLRS] NLRS site...antenna gain measurements

Fri, 23 Jan 2004 10:32:21 -0600

Hi All,

I am looking for the documentation on the 2003 Aurora Antenna Measurments. .
I have not found it yet.  I have doc  going back to 1998 but not 2003.  John
copied what I  sent him.   I will keep looking and  when I fine the doc I
will put the corrections on the reflector.

The dbi vs dbd is a copy of the Central States method of recording.

No problem, and if any of you NLRS'ers out there
remember your antenna gains and such maybe a reminder
might help.  I just remember what I did bring and what
others in our group brought and tested, so that is why
it caught my eye.  Easy to get cornfused ya know...I
do it regularly...*L*  Catch you on the air this
weekend.
