Hello AMSAT list, I have a problem caused by static electricity building up on my two helix antennas (23 cm and 13 cm). Two converters have already been zapped, so I have to do something about it.
What measure would you recommend to avaoid statics building up on helix antennas? Does anyone have experience using the shorted quarter-wave-stub mentioned in "The ARRL Handbook 2008" pages 23.20-21?
