Antennae

[hawkeye2an]

Hello again, I'm a model builder (mostly american WW II). I would like to see some close-ups of all types of antenna. Wires strung between post and tail, insulators. loops, football etc. Thanks for all the help so for. I have REALLY learned a lot on this sight.

those set ups are typical antenna installations that were typical to the 30s' and 40s' for such as the antenna wire mountngs and ADF antenna installation.

Doug Gilliss is a family friend who witnessed my father in law die in a plane crash last July. He got screwed over by the FAA who was looking for a scapegoat in the accident.
