Re: New Sdrplay and antenna creation
This fellow at MIT says it is smaller and that the other plate is infinity.

An interesting read that might have some clues.

Re: New Sdrplay and antenna creation
Enoug to say that, if the above is correct, increasing the SURFACE of the PC board devoted to the "capacitive coupling" should increase the antenna output, It does increase the output. But the relationship between surface area and output is non-linear. That is, if we double the area the output will...

Re: New Sdrplay and antenna creation
The plate or wire has capacitance but where is the other half of that capacitor's plate? Plate or whip Most active electric field antennas do not, like the MiniWhip, use a metal plate, but a whip of about a meter long. This makes no essential difference for the operation. Such a whip will, if it is ...

6 Meter 50 MHZ Transoceanic Skip
Just heard EA2XR -16db ((near Bilbao, Esp.)) in FT-8 transmission into midwest US.

Re: RECEIVE DATA OUTPUT FEATURE SUGGESTION
I was going to try to do a CSV. When I went to change the time mark interval, I inadvertently changed FFT average instead. I thought something was strange when I saw 32 as one of the choices. Who would want to use 32 seconds as a time-mark interval
Maybe, this also happened with you.

Re: New Sdrplay and antenna creation
It hasn't been confirmed but it's been suggested that the problem with the RA0SMS is that it uses a MOSFET. The PA0RDT uses a J310 JFET. They are both field effect transistors but MOSFETs generally have much higher input impedances and higher input capacitances. The antenna in question may have been...

Re: New Sdrplay and antenna creation
Bakker got his units wrong in the text. The units in the text should be millimeters (mm) not centimeters (cm). The units used in the table are correct.

Re: New Sdrplay and antenna creation
In response to Glovisol: You wrote on May 31, 2019: "The shape and the size of the surface of the antenna PC board seem to be "magic " in the sense that, as soon as you alter these dimensions, the antenna does not work any more" I don't know where you got the idea that altering the antenna's dimensi...
