Hi guys
I saw mention of a microair radio in a message that was accidentally deleted
. To the person that has this radio, would you recommend it ? I have one on
order although I have never seen one before. I ordered it because of its
ability to mount in a standard instrument hole and it seems to have good
features.Will I be dissapointed?
I decide that after seeing Mark L's antennae install that I also wanted the
same. Because I couldn't find copper tape I had to come up with something
else. My answer was to strip the shield from a length of co-ax cable, bunch
it up to make the hole bigger then isert a 1/4" dowel into it. Stretch the
shield tight over the dowel, coat with resin and you have a perfect ridgid
antennae that will slide up the hole in the fin that I had to bore since my
fin was built many moons ago. One end is twisted together for the feeder to
solder to and the other end is trimmed for correct s.w.r. Two of these and
my dipole is in business!
