Off Topic - Antenna Design Software
Also look up the Gamma Match Brian. It’s how the best match was obtained with the old MET antennas in the 80’s. Mechanically quite easy to do with the driven element connected to the boom electrically

Support for R-666 Dragonfly SDR - Update
For something built in the EU or NA, we expect better engineering but from China? They work to a different rule, usually “let’s copy a design then remove every component we can, so the product “just”

Simon, Can you not build a Bluetooth unit into a matchbox and connect a wired headset to it? You could wear the box on a lanyard, belt clip, shirt pocket or nipple-clamp whatever. There’s a small chan

DX Galaxy Down?
Despite my preference for a mailing list, I think it isn’t too much to ask, that we go with Simon’s preference. Even in the short time I’ve been using SDRC, I’ve seen rapid development to add new feat
