NASA developed and tested a 3D-printed antenna to demonstrate a low-cost capability to communicate science data to Earth. The ...

He claims it will noticeably improve both transmit and receive by making a quarter-wave monopole into a makeshift dipole antenna system. Per his instructions you basically add a short wire to the ...

For a quick example, a dipole antenna for the 20 m band will need around 10 m of wire, and the lower frequencies like 80 m need about four times as much linear space. But if you’re willing to ...
