BH4GTG I previously reviewed Professor BH3XZTB's attempts to improve the shortwave GP antenna ground network.https://forum.hamcq.cn/d/3584), it was found that using a GP-style shielding fabric for mounting fishing rods on a balcony also had significant effects. Friends who are interested can test it out.
BG6HFD Indeed, the mesh itself forms a planar surface that can be used to create a mirror antenna, and this surface also provides more even coverage. For the balcony fishing rod, you could try laying a shielding fabric on the exterior wall; the actual effect should be better.
BH4GTG Liridice Normally, I use a vertical antenna during my DXing sessions. However, I didn't have a pre-configured internet connection at the time, so I just tried it based on what I saw in our local amateur radio group's online discussions.
BH4GLR Could you please advise on what the effect would be if I placed the "bù" (presumably a type of flooring material) directly on the balcony floor? Would it make a significant difference?
BH4GTG BH4GLR I haven't tried it myself, but the connecting wires are too short. It's just a suggestion for providing an alternative solution for friends who have antennas on their balconies and struggle with poor ground network adjustments.
BH3XZT Oh? So I've become "BH3XZTB"? To be honest, I've been working on a plan for the balcony antenna over the past couple of days, and it seems promising. It also uses shielding fabric as a ground plane, which I will share later.
Ariel How much does that cost? Would it be possible to hang a picture on the balcony railing of my dorm room?
bi3apz Make this into a curtain; when using it, extend it and attach the rod. When not in use, pull it to one side.
BH4GLR BH4GLR The price of 2 * 1.10 on DouDou is 35.3, while some 1 square meter pieces cost around 20. Therefore, I have stopped using Taobao; for larger items, I use JD.com, and for smaller items, I use DouDou.
