Org Subject: [amsat-bb] Elk dualband antenna experiences How does the Elk Dualband yagi work as a satellite antenna in a base setup when you are not elevating it? Is it better to mount it for vertical or horizontal polarization to get maximum coverage of satellite passes? Still trying to figure out the best FM sat setup here after some station redesign. 73s John AA5JG _______________________________________________ Sent via [email protected].
