Foil antenna and carbon fiber
My Internet search didn't turn up what I was looking for so I came here for
advice. The task at hand is the installation of a foil antenna in a composite canard which would ordinarily be a rather routine task for the plane - a Quickie - but in this case there are some carbon fiber rods at 25% chord that make placement impossible without having the foil either near some of the carbon or metal components. My question: How much does the carbon fiber rods affect the antenna performance compared to a few bits of isolated metal (elevator hinge) and does it make a significant difference if the carbon fiber is PAN or Pitch? |
