    Taht is a “normal” Helix antenna. It would remain in every “How to build an antenna” book for radio-amateurs and was only calculated for the “new” wavelength.

    I posted that video about 4 years ago! From that time on that antenna worked well for about 2,5 years at the roof of a friends home to my “appartment” for Internet connection sharing. After that we use it for Data transfer between our two homes. works well till now!

    Nice! But theoretically the gain must be about 23 dB for 52 turns.I has too much losses. Can someone made it in stub loaded helix version?

    For WLAN frequencies a helix antenna is like a wheelchair for a healthy runner!!! Begin to play with parabolic dishes and feeding antenna design and you will believe real gain and distances over 10 km….its not a joke!!! Helix antenna is good for 70cm band but not over! Best regards from HB9ZLX

    My rig with 130cm sat dish and a personal design(secret) feed antenna device is providing gains around 39 db!!!! My longest connection is from Lugano(my homecity) to Milano, italy, about 100Km away from me, using my sat dish antenna and a 10W amplifier with 27 db gain in RX!!! And this is only the begin…im searching a guy living in the states for try the first transoceanic WLAN connection!!! I have plans for build 500W Microwave linear amps…someone interested?? Write me please!! Bye bye!

    @SouthTuningSwiss 100Km! Wow, I’ve been sitting here anxiously awaiting a chinese-made yagi.. supposedly 25 db gain. I’m really hoping it at least outperforms my cantenna. I’m hoping just to get down to the next block while you’re talking about across the ocean, lol! Good luck with that. Oh..500W, won’t that give people breasticle cancer or something?
