Neil,
thats a good idea and i will do so this week. The old dorms
are built like fallout shelters and the new ones are all wired with
cable and ethernet and digital phones so I do imagine there will
be some interference. I hope that if i can put the antenna close
to the buildings it will be just enough that you can hear the signal
all over campus. again, campus is literally around a 3/4 mile all told
and a good deal of that is athletic fields and other areas im not
that concerned about covering. we are right outside of a major
city so lpfm lisencing is completely out of the question. I think
our best bet is a part-15 vertical radiator on top of the main dorm.
My main question remains: is a rangemaster w/ the radio shack
whip antenna or an sstran w/ the base loaded 3 meter copper
pipe radiator going to be a better method of over the air transmission?
anyone else care to chime in? i’d really appricate the opinions.
thanks again
mark
