Dallas To much delight I was Just able to here some transmissions last
Sunday. I was using a home made JPole. What is the best antenna
configuration for SAREX? Please feel free to EMail.

Hello Doug,
The simplest ant I have used to work the shuttle has been a pair of
crossed dipoles. It's is as the name would suggest just two halfwave
dipoles laid out horizontally and at right angles to each other, so
they form a "X" if you like and phased with a 1/4 wave matching stub.
You should be able to buy one quite easily from a good ham shop or if
you like I'd be more than happy to mail you with the details of how to
build one.
Question for you if I may, where can I get a copy of MacSPOC ?
Kind regards,
Sean.
