Kite Antenna Project
The idea of the Kite Antenna is still in the CONCEPT phase.
We know yet that we would like to bring a wire of 41 meters in vertical position in the air. We bought a Kite and did already some test flights. Without wind and also without success 
Last flight on 1st of May, we broke one front spoon (carbon), so we went next Saturday to the shop to get some carbon and also fiberglass spoons.
But during this flight we were able to put a GPS logger (Agps 747A+), connected on the Kite (thanks Andre ON2ADR). We could measure the height during the flight. The final result was 70 meters, so good enough to connect a wire of 42 meters 
Meanwhile the Antenna Bleeder is ready thanks to Patrick (ON4CLP) for the fast manufacturing of the concept we had in mind. Fixing the carbon spoon and we are ready for take of next time. Then we will add some measurements we did for the antenna. There are a lot of parameters we would like to know before we are starting to transmit on HF.
Stay tuned, more to come…
