The name of the game is ERP. They care not about how many watts they
can make, but what the F.S. meter says accross the field. The antenna
design is an important part of the system. It must be installed on the
vehicle, and the vehicle must be roadable with it in place. As you can see
in some of the pix, multi element phased arrays are common. The higest
obsticle to overcome is to have a robust design that will not melt!
