Because I like to tinker and experiment and I have a distant trunked site I would like to listen to...
What kind of antenna would you suggest based on these criteria in priority order.
1. 150-154 MHz (even better if it could get down to 139 MHz)
2. Smallest size
3. Gain
4. Directional
I have built a few coaxial-collinear and ground planes before but need something with a bit more direction and hopefully smaller size.
What about a reflector antenna? Something based on 1/8 wave? Something utilizing an old Dish Network dish? A regular yagi would be a bit large in the area I need to install it in.
What might you suggest?
Thanks everyone.
