I'm thinking of switching from an external monopole type com antenna
(long rod sticking out at an angle with copper tape in a radiating
pattern on the fuselage floor) to a Bob Archer SA-006 dipole antenna.
The dipole appears looks like a '3' and made from thin sheet aluminum.
This '3' shape is what you attach the coax shield too (ground). The core
of the coax attaches to a small insulated aluminum plate in the middle
of the 3 shape.
Does anyone know how it works (the theory) and does anyone have one in
their Europa? How is it?
