Tape wound helical antenna

04.04.201406.04.2014 Michael

Here is just another way to make a helical antenna. Cheap and easy.  Aluminum sheet reflector, cardboard tube and self-adhesive copper tape. Designed and tuned for 1240MHz this helical has 8 turns on a 85mm diameter tube.

Update:

Added some eye-candy after flight testing. Performance is excellent. No difference to the wire wound helical I built earlier..
