Thanks Thierry, ON4SKY I have seen that company attend a number of rallies/shows in this country, and they seem to be reputable. I have no personal experience of the quality of their products, though I have seen and heard good reviews. Hope that helps, 73, Iain M0PCB/P |

Hope that helps, 73, Iain M0PCB/P The two well known amateur radio antenna manufacturers in the UK are Sandpiper and Moonraker. Both are small family owned and run businesses which make a reasonable product at a fair price for a specific market. I would not necessarily say that they are whiz-kids in antenna design theory - in fact I somehow doubt that they actually design them themselves (my sincere apologies to either/both if I am wrong) - but they both know what they are talking about from a construction and use standpoint. -- Woody harrogate2 at ntlworld dot com |

I understand that sandpiper will actually construct custom antennas on a one-off basis, or in fact scale some of their range for different bands, I'm not sure if any other manufacturers will do that or not. Saying that I've had no experience of sandpiper, although the GM3VLB mini-delta looks reasonable, and is not too expensive! I've had some minor things from Moonraker, and the build quality left something to be desired, but that is only a very limited experience of the company. 73, Iain M0PCB/P |
