 I think the ratio of hams in pattern is much higher ratio than general AMA membership.

  2???  Del, where do you live??   For some reason I didn't picture you in the NY/NJ area.   That or my regions are messed up.

      Yeah...but do we REALLY want to  go there????  Lmao...  Then it will start to sound like the HAM  forum...

      The antenna's we  used on the 72mhz band were 1/4 wave antenna's.  Approx 1 m.  The  72Mhz wavelength is 416cm for a full wave (varying some for which specific  frequency you were on.

      The 2.4Ghz wavelength is only 12.4cm or about  4.8in.   So an equivalent quarter wave antenna will only be about  1.2in in length.

      -M

      PS for those that care, wavelength (in cm) =  speed of light (in cm) / Frequency (in cycles per second)

      Basically, the  length of the antenna is related to frequency of the transmission. 2.4 gig  freq is made up of small wavelength. If you remember High School Physics, the  relation between Freq and Wavelength... ie- it's an inverse relationship. As  Freq goes up, WL becomes small. At 72 meg, WL is fairly long, hence the reason  for the longer antenna; at 27 meg, wl is even longer. Those who used 27 meg  equipment a bunch of moons ago, will remember that Tx and RX antennas were  pretty long and only represented 1/2 the WL (I think it was  1/2)
       
      Dean Pappas, Ed Alt and Jim Oddino can explain further if  needed
       
      BTW, tuning a pipe on a 2 stroke requires similar  understanding between rpm (base frequency) and tuning length (wavelength of  the exhaust pressure front and type of exhaust) to achieve the desired  resonance....similar to electrical antennas.  QED
