Re: The Best GDO Ever Made?
Ref G0HZU - Fully agree with your remark about the Maplin Dip Meter - I have one and ''not very good'' is an understatement. If I can drag you all back to the title of this thread, Dear Readers, which is the best GDO?
In this case, the best for my purpose. I am listener only, and largely on an old 888A on the old amateur bands 10-160m.
I know aerials are not believed to be super critical for reception-only purposes, but I am fascinated with them and quite often change mine for something ''new''.
The Maplin jobby is very difficult to use successfully, in fact I find it to be pretty useless. So, assuming that I can find one, and that money is no object (I wish), what ideally should I buy to help set up my aerials.
All comments gratefully received. pete
