Work is progressing on my new satellite antenna set up. I have a couple of questions for the group.
1. What would be the effective wind area for a 2 foot by 3 foot grid (BBQ) dish?
2. I have a WIMO helix for L Band (Model 23-2). The info says a wind load of 200 Newtons. Does anyone know under what conditions it is 200 Newtons so I could calculate the area of it?
Thanks and 73,
Gary "Joe" Mayfield
