Thats what im looking for,, spec sheet based results, not "i did AA" and it didnt work, or "i did ABCDEFG" AND IT GOT 400 miles at 300 mbs per sub" I see alot of 30 degre poles with multiple antennas, but no aftermath. I just have no tool to plot them, though i heard link planner added

Re: [AFMUG] Rfelements

I concur. I've only used a couple of them, because we don't have a lot of places where 30 degree sectors make sense, and the gain is just too low on the others. On Tue, Apr 10, 2018, 9:12 PM Sean Heskett wrote: > Low gain but no side lobes, just one spot beam. > > The 30* unit

Re: [AFMUG] Rfelements

They are great for stuff like 30/40Mhz wide, gps sync, put 4-6 on a pole in a subdivision or on a tower leg kinda thing. If anybody thought they were for something else (ie long range), they didn't read the data sheets. Lightweight, low size, low wind load, perfectly circular pattern - great

Re: [AFMUG] Rfelements

Re: [AFMUG] Rfelements

Low gain but no side lobes, just one spot beam. The 30* unit is the only one with a decent gain. If you go any wider than 30* then the gain is too low in my opinion. But you can use lots of 30* antennas per tower and with GPS sync you can Re-use channels if you need. 2 cents -Sean On Tue,
