Carbon Fibre
I have just read an article regarding an AR Op using a carbon fibre fishing
rod to make a 12 foot mobile antenna for mobiling. My question is, does carbon fibre absorb RF? The operator has wound 5.2 metres (approx 17 feet) of insulated house wiring in a helical fashion around the rod. He uses an SG-237 tuner as well. If indeed that carbon fibre is conductive, and he claims he is getting outstanding results whilst operating stationery mobile, then what is happening? I would appreciate comments. 73. John VK2KC |
