[PPRAANet] Can Vertical Antennas Be Directional?

[Derek Brown]

Folks,

I thought this was a neat test. Actually something I've been meaning to do but K8MRD beat me to it. I'm quite sure it's been done prior as well in one form or another.. 😂

Things to also consider are how the utilized band propitiation is behaving at the time of testing (a topic on it's own). Also topography in our case matters greatly too (imagine being in Cheyenne Mtn State Park vs top of Pikes Peak vs Ellicott). Lots of variables at play.

I still want to do this on my own & gather some data because it's a reason to play radio outside!

Good luck on your next radio project/adventure & please join us Thursdays at 8pm 147.345+ 107.2 ctcss to tell everyone about it!
