[amsat-bb] Ground plane & AO-27

[Jeff <jeffj@xxxxxxxxx>]

I plan on saving my nickels and dimes to buy an Arrow antenna that 
everyone is using with their HT's for portable QRP on AO-27, but in the 
mean time will a ground plane mag mount type antenna be of any use at all 
in working the satellite or will I just end up frustrated due to the fact 
the I won't be able to achieve the proper polarization?
