Custom Antenna Project #1

Custom Antenna Project #1 is to construct a dual band antenna that can be used on both the 70cm and 2 meter bands. Secondly, minor adjustment will allow a similar antenna to be used for GRSM radios (tuned only for 462-467).

To start this project, I needed a way to analyze the antenna and wanted to have some grasp on how loading coils would affect the antenna's performance. See the following subprojects/experiments used.

Antenna Test Block
Loading Coil Test

Once I nail down these basics will continue with the project.
