How many HAMS have any need for a flexible circuit board?

We'll never know if we don't explore things.

The same could be said for silver plated, titanium antenna parts...

I can see more use for a flexible board.


What are your "more" uses for flexible boards?

I can't think of any. But a general construction practice (and flexible
circuit board qualifies) seems to have more value than some very expensive
method of making an antenna.

Did you read the article?

Making these flexible boards is an arduous process and requires a LOT of
capital outlay, so you have to make a LOT of boards or they will be
very expensive.
