All,

There is an antenna reflector that would be more appropriate for the
is post.  Try it out.

Welcome to the [email protected] mailing list! Antennas is a
mailing list (reflector) devoted to discussing, comparing,
evaluating,
designing, and constructing antennas (aerials) of all types,
especially for amateur radio, SWL, scanning, and monitoring.

 * Design and Evaluation
 * Modeling, Optimizing
 * Analysis Software
 * MF, HF, VHF, UHF, SHF
 * Construction Projects
 * Anything Else Antenna Related


This list (reflector) is devoted entirely to the topic of antennas.
Anything related to antennas operation is appropriate.
