Hi all:

I have just added a 1.2Ghz module in my FT736R.

Plan to use aircom cable to a SSB preamp, mast mounted.

The question is which way to go for the antenna.

Should I go with a loop yagi, or a helix??

Plans are to do some terrestrial work, along with satellite (latter is primary interest

at this time).

For 2.4Ghz, will use a Meyer's dish, but for 1.2 thought to use one of the above 2

antennas.

What are your thoughts/experience with this band/choice of antennas?

73, Greg
