South Dublin Radio Club test IOTA antennas

Members of South Dublin Radio Club were in Co. Wicklow last weekend to try out a number of new antenna designs.

With the co-operation of a number of overseas stations,
on-air comparisons were carried out between phased vertical antennas and standard dipole-type antennas.

The results of this experiment will be used in developing antennas for the forthcoming IOTA contest.

South Dublin Radio Club are carrying out Theory classes
every Tuesday between 8.00 p.m. and 10.00 p.m. in the
Marian Community Centre, Marian Road, Tempelogue.

The classes are run on an ongoing basis with an informal
structure and anyone interested in radio are welcome to
drop in at any time.
