Mine exhibit a series resistance of a few tens of milliohms and the added thermal noise was insignificant. The manufacturer claimed to use nanostructured carbon electrodes. The leakage current was also small Bruce > On 30 August 2019 at 11:19 Gerhard Hoffmann wrote: > > > > Am 26.08.19 um

I think several people have run into that issue, including myself. It seems designed for a slightly tapered rod. Easy to fix with the right tool. Denny > On Aug 29, 2019, at 16:41, Ben Hall wrote: > > Only issue with mine was that the thread wasn't fully cut, so I modified an > old taper

Hello Gary, I went by Excess Solutions today in San Jose and picked up two of these - they are in a box on the "antenna aisle - (6)" toward the end of the aisle on the RHS at the top. There were actually around 10 or so in that box - so there's at least 8 left as of this afternoon. They all

They work very well. I get the same results as with a $5000 L1/L2 survey antenna. My antenna location is horrible, so there may be some difference with a better location... but I doubt it would be noticeable for most users. I used F9P, F9T, NetRS and Z12 receivers. >

Hi All, For the second summer in a row we were smacked with lightning. So I'm in need of a new GPS antenna. Might as well look for one with multi band units. I recall some talk about the cheap multi-band units on ebay that that are compatible with the f9P modules. Can anyone report back how
