Demonstrates the design and construction of a 9-element Yagi antenna for the **70 cm band** (432 MHz), based on the DK7ZB concept. The resource details EZNEC+ calculations for a single antenna, providing gain, sidelobe suppression, and front-to-back ratio figures. It also presents a comprehensive analysis of stacking two such antennas, including optimal stacking distance (1000 mm) and the resulting performance enhancements for the stacked array, such as an increased gain of 17.03 dBi. The article includes detailed drawings, wire file dimensions in millimeters, and azimuth/elevation plots for both single and stacked configurations. Practical construction steps are documented with original photographs, illustrating element mounting, the **28 Ohm matching system** using two quarter-wave 75 Ohm transmission lines, and the critical N-connector wiring. It also covers the iterative process of fine-tuning the driven element length to achieve a return loss of 20 dB, validating the EZNEC+ simulation results with actual measurements.

This web article by VK3BLG details the construction of an experimental 70cm (432 MHz) circularly polarized patch antenna, intended for satellite communication. The resource provides dimensions, feed point specifications, and impedance matching considerations for a single patch element, with discussion extending to array configurations for circular polarization. Construction involves a copper patch element on a dielectric substrate, fed via a coaxial cable. The design is based on information derived from AO-40 satellite antenna specifications, focusing on achieving circular polarization for satellite reception. The article includes specific dimensions for the patch and feed points, along with impedance values. Validation is implied through on-air satellite reception reports, with initial signal reports of **1 S-point above noise** for AO-40 beacons using a grid reflector, improving to **3-4 S-points above noise** with a 2-turn helical feed. The author references a _NanoVNA_ for impedance measurements and discusses the relationship between slot and dipole antennas in the context of patch design.

The resource details the construction of a 433 MHz LoRa APRS iGate and a tracker, both built around _TTGO T-Beam v1.1_ microcontroller boards. Each board integrates an OLED screen, WiFi, GPS, and an SMA antenna connector, powered by an 18650 3.7 V lithium-ion battery or microUSB. The iGate operates on 433.775 MHz, with its status verifiable on aprs.fi, demonstrating practical implementation of LoRa-based APRS solutions. The methodology involves programming the modules using Visual Studio Code with the PlatformIO plugin. This process loads the necessary firmware and a JSON configuration file, which includes the operator's callsign and WiFi credentials for the iGate. The guide emphasizes the ease of programming and provides specific steps for configuration. Initial testing of the iGate and tracker, including smart beaconing configuration, is documented. The low power output of approximately 200 mW from the LoRa board's transmitter is noted, with suggestions for range extension through improved antennas or RF amplification. The author, N4MI, plans to deploy a higher-gain 70cm antenna for the iGate.
