[HamWAN PSDR] Kitsap County Tests: East Bremerton, West Bremerton, Silverdale

[Daniel Ransom]

Bart,

You know about the antenna in my photo--this is good.  I was wondering if it was a decent antenna.  I got it for $25 on eBay.

I ordered a Poynting antenna.

I appreciate your help.

Glad to hear about your various successful tests today.  But why are you using *that* antenna?  It's a terrible antenna.  You'd get better numbers with the Poynting.
