Is there any particular science behind making that little one in the color white and that huge one in the color black? Or just random?

Lol was random

Heres the 5.8 on..going to make a better bracket to hold it.

Pro are you going to be selling them?

Most likely and maybe made to order custom length rg402 cables with sma connectors....going to be testing them this week and DB going to testing them for me as well. I received some help with measurements from an antenna master (well i think he is) and the ones im testing and its twin that DB will be testing should be 20.5dbi but very narrow beam. We will see how it goes!

If you're talking about Alex from Ib crazy,yes he is the master! The guy eats antenna flakes for breakfast

just went out and did 19000 ft. i think if i go over to the other area where there is pretty much nothing but flat farm land i can go further. It did RTH once i saw i was pointing in the wrong direction i was able to keep going.
