Holy Cow! Now that is what I call a "CHRISTMAS TREE ORNAMENT" that would
look "COOL" on the top of the tree.  LOOKS LIKE A RIBBON FOIL WRAPPED AROUND
A CONE. 4-18 GHz? Just a little above the range of the R-390's capability.
Of course you could mix it down.  I wonder if you had a dozen of there
antennas in parallel, could you  treat these like 'Resistors in Parallel',
and get the frequency down?
On a Serious note, and getting off the subject of Antennas and onto the
"BOATANCHOR EXPRESS",  does anyone have a AMPERITE CATALOG of Ballast
Current limiting Resistors?
I would like to know if there is a 4HTF4 Ballast or if someone has a radio
set that uses this ballast.
I believe that it may go into a TMC Transmitter or maybe a TMC Receive, but
I'm not sure. Any info will be appreciated.
