Hi Luc, Conclusion don't jump too fast on some hamfest deal as what's good for WiFI is not always so good at 2.4ghz! This was probably just a typo; if so, pardon the reply... Wi-Fi and Wi-Max are different things. An antenna designed for Wi-Max may not operate very well, as you

I have toyed with using a comercial medium gain patch array for 2.4 GHz Leos. I would guess that there is no incentive to use circular pol for terrestrial data links. Even reflections and multi-path signals would remain linear. Space com is a totally different deal and circular makes sense if
