Hello,

After a week of fixing equipment (still ongoing) I've finally been able to make some solid antenna measurements!  It's still very much a work in progress and will likely take all of this week as well, but it's being documented on this brand new wiki page:

https://www.hamwan.org/t/tiki-index.php?page=Antenna+Analysis&structure=HamWAN

Here's a delicious graph from that page:



If you'd like to know how to interpret that, you'll have to click the link.  :)  Here are a couple pictures of the incredibly messy test setup in action.  The ARC Wireless TX antenna:

The 8660C sweeping signal source:


The Laird RX antenna (bottom left) and the 8566A taking the measurement:


The 2 specans that needed fixing (1 in progress still):


The facial reconstructive surgery work for the top specan:


Ever onward,
