Hi all
I'm wanting to work satellite from the car. I have an arrow antenna at the moment, but just wondering how people feel about a 1/2 wave ground plane mounted on a vehicle. Obviously not going to outperform the arrow, but it would be a whole lot easier for the high passes. Grey nomad here, and quite often out of telephone range. I will also be running APRS via sat, so any suggestions on antenna solutions would be gratefully accepted.
