[MLB-WIRELESS] Antennas questions

[Bryce Letcher]

You can often adjust the polariation of the antenna simply by rotating it 90
degrees. I'm assuming it doesn't operate as a ground plane style, that would
be unusual at 2.4 Ghz.

I have a copy of the ARRL book from the early 70's. Not much use for these
frequencies as this was fantasy land back then.

I'm looking around for an antenna with a beamwidth (technical term) of
something around 180 degrees and a gain over 10dbi.
The panel antennas from that guy at e3 looked okay but they were
horizontally polarised as far as I remember and a little on the large
side. There were a couple of solid corner reflectors at pacsat but not
quite enough beamwidth and their antennas look a bit on the expensive
side.
Does anyone have antenna suggestions?

While I'm at it has anyone got a copy of the ARRL antenna handbook, is
it worth having a copy floating around melbwireless?
