Does the Palisade have an LNA at the antenna? Since it is an integrated receiver antenna construction, I would imagine they use a passive antenna. And you have no ready to use coaxial connector to the Palisade housing. Is it worth your time? Why not take a small mag-mount antenna (++many available at sub $10 at an online auction site close to you.) They usually have up to about 5 meters of thin coax (RG174 or equiv.). -- Björn _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
