Re: Metal Antenna

I have seen many things used as antennas, bed springs, fire escapes, even a tree. This last thing was a US Army experiment from around 45 years ago.

Re: Metal Antenna

most metals can be used so long as they are cut to required dimensions according to frequency you want to receive or transmit
