Review on π‘ GRA-YG1443 800W Square Horizontal Directional Loop Base Antenna - Efficient 2M/70CM & Broad Frequency Range, SO239 GABIL by Kerrick Restoration
Very low Rx sensitivity at 2M.
It's not possible to tune the SSB part of both bands, just one or the other (and of course this only works for the SSB part of the bands as it is horizontally polarized so I have the FM part of the band not tried band band). I could set a reasonable SWR on one band, but the other would then be >= 3:1. But even when set to the lowest SWR at 2M, the Rx sensitivity was 7-10dB lower than the vanilla dipole compared to using the SDRduo at the same time. I ended up building a dual band dipole using a pair of dual band tines and got much better results (listen to me on SSB satellites to see it).
- Half wave dipole, curved square loop, ultra light, high gain, horizontally mounted.
- Not sure
