Hello all,
I have read with great interest the AA2TX article about an easy way to build the lindenblad antenna for 2m satellite band. I have some questions for the ones who actually use these antennas. I'm thinking about a portable setup for a three weeks operation in IS0 at the end of december. How does the antenna perform on LEOs? I've always used small yagis handeld with great results, but this setup is quite unsatisfactory for winter operations. How problematic is the fixed circular polarization of the lindenblad? And finally... does anyone have tested dimensions for a 70 cm easy-lindenblad design? I'm particularly interested in cw operations on AO-7 by the way.
Thanks in advance and best 73 Francesco IZ8DWF
