"Drag a wire behind you like they tow banners."
If it were as simple as you suggest then I think a few of us would be doing it. Picking up banners with an aircraft in flight is a skill that most pilots don't have. It would be far better to use a retractable antenna. However, a legal installation of any sort of antenna extension/retraction mechanism on an aircraft with a standard airworthiness cert would be a significant challenge. (No banner experience but I do have lots of time towing gliders and flying jumpers) 73, Andy k3wyc ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to [email protected]
