      Fero - although I am not, I will write something here on November 3, 2024 at 17:06 #22711

      Žáves, ja používam ohraničovací drôt na robotickú kosačku. Funguje skvele a je pevný. Skúsil som ho pretrhnúť ťahom – nepodarilo sa mi to. Dá sa teda napnúť celkom do roviny. Akýkoľvek prehyb drôtovej antény zvýši SWR – to som zistil až praxou… nikde sa to nepíše aj keď je to v celku logické málo kto si to uvedomí. Používam trvale na QTH inverted V a na portable na konci napájaný long wire. Videl som porovnanie medeného drôtu a oceľového lanka – zanedbateľný rozdiel v prijímanom/vysielanom signále…. takže je jedno čo použijete keď je to správne dlhé a dostatočne pevné. Mne ten drôt z kosačky ostal ako zvyšok – tak som ho použil…. takže „žáves“ (žádne velké sraní)
