Very nice white paper Joel. Really enjoyed reading.
I have a YCCC-9 out on nearby very RF quiet 20,000 acre
Ranch property in South Texas.
Built it using PCBs from Steve’s videos.
I have 9 blank PCBs to build and populate with components if anyone is
interested. I ordered 10 minimum order and only need 1. Contact me if
interested. Free.
Not having the comparisons you mentioned, my array performance seems very on
par to your findings.
Thanks for doing this report and this information is very valuable to future
low band receive deployment.
See you at Hamvention and CTU
