[amsat-bb] Re: CP antenna from 2 WiFi panels

[Edward R Cole]

Antenna arrived today.  Shipping was $9.30 so total of $24.29.  All 
white plastic encapsulated: 4.5x4.5x1.0 inch and has four mounting 
holes on the flange.  I will mount it on a 1/8-inch thick aluminum 
plate attached to my satellite elevation crossboom using 
U-bolts.  Very nice looking workmanship.  8 dBi gain translates 
loosely to 6 dBd ( about the free-space gain of a 3-element yagi.
