Looking for info on 900 antennas I bought.

Post by PETNRDX »

I know this is a longshot, but...
I bought three colinear antennas with white painted brackets in July of 2005 from someone in Novelty, Ohio.
Now I am getting around to using them, and I have misplaced the info as to who made them, the gain etc.
I am using one, and it seems to work fine, and I am perfectly happy with them, but if the fellow that I bought them from happens to read this forum, it would be nice to know the gain and pattern if I can get the info.
Using one on my Tait T800 repeater on 927.35 here in the Reno NV area.
Probably going to use the others with base station Maxtracs and GTX's.

OK, I finally got around to getting a picture of one of these antennas and the bracket that came with them.
Not really sure how to post a picture here, but now seems like a good time to try...
Any body got some simple instructions?

One of the batlab members gave me this link: http://www.imageshack.us then you can upload a pic.. and put the link here. Unless someone on the forum will post it on there website for a timeframe. Too bad you can't find the person you made the deal with. But, hey! if your SWR's ok..... enjoy the antennas!

The antennas work just fine, good SWR, etc.
It would just be a bit nicer if I had saved the info regarding things like gain, angle, etc.
Also, thanks for the link, I will attempt to try that method.
