[amsat-bb] Re: 2m/70cm Quadrifilar Helix antenna Antenna Kit from Antennas.us

I purchased their 440 antenna built a year or so ago and waited forever to
get it. The wait wasn't really worth it in the end and I felt like I got a
better downlink signal with a homebrewed K5OE design. In both cases I used a
preamp close to the antenna mounted at about 20' above ground. I'm now in
the process of trying to build a few other stationary antennas and will let
the group know the results if they are worth reporting!
