But on the site http://www.antennex.com is some design info, and its chat list has quotes from some users/builders suggesting that they have great possibilitys I currently am in the stages of metal bashing one of these things together, but I understand that the matching network, required for its correct operation can be a bit of a pain in the bum??. Can anyone pass on any hints or comments about them ?? Cheers Paul G4HDS....... microsat@aol.com
