Hello again,

The problem with AD converter is "solved" in PolarPlot with solution, not to
use AGC, and if possible to use an constant level of audio from the radio,
on modern radios this can be paket and data jack, on ft-847 i have 2
possibilities to pick up the constant signal, normally which can not be
compared with AD converter.

Thanks, Adam

The Dataq A/D converter is what we use, however, you are not limited to
this.

Additionally, the main reason we designed our own software is that we felt
the signal feed through the speaker, does not accurately reflect the

actual
performance as volume, AGC and radio signal processing does cause some
variation.

Though, I must say Polar Plot was one of our initial considerations.

Thanks for the reply,
Guenther VE3CVS

Thanks for offer, will consider your idea, already found on the web

Antenna
Plot, looks professional, only problem is AD-DA converter (25USD) if we

are
talking about the same.
If Polar plot measurements are true like they said, then much easier is

to
use just a sound card.
Seems,today not so many people use this kind of software to check the

real
diagram and the gain of the antenna.
Thanks again for the replay

Another program which you wish to consider for field applications is
AntennaPlot by VE3SQB from Degen Designs. We initially designed this
software for our own use, however feel that this is a valuable for

both
amateurs and professionals alike.

This program works together with a A/D converter and produces accurate
results.

As this program is on selected release during initial offerings, it is

best
to contact us directly at
for information and a
copy.

Hello, can somebody send me PolarPlot v1.6, not the latest v2.0 on

my
mail.
Many antenna need to be tested in the field, HI.

Thanks,
