Arrrrrg !!!   🤬😩 Why does this happen on a Friday . The last thing I need is an M4 jumble. I'll start putting masking tape on these lids. How's it going on your bench?

We created these detailed radar reflection animations to show the subtleties of secondary reflections from Radar Cross Section calibration targets. See the multiple reflections that create undesired ripple in a cal target's RCS vs frequency: Full YouTube

LEGO Horn Antenna, part 2: It works in C-band with about 12 dBi of gain. Tested two lengths as shown. The conductive bricks are sold by starting at around $7500 for a kit! Also, these are not LEGO branded blocks.

Happy to help out a talented Youtuber. We tested his PCB Yagi and corner reflector antennas. Enjoy his design and test video here

We just antenna patterned the popular Flipper-Zero. It's a virally popular hacker(?) security tool/toy that can record and mimic RF remotes as well as many other security/access devices. @flipper_zero #flipperzero

As a challenge, I told "Stable Diffusion" to create "Kardasian antennas", thinking they might be more trendy. Things got a little weird, celebrities don't make the best antennas. 😆

Here's what Artificial Intelligence "thinks" antennas look like, based on zillions of tagged internet pictures. Programs like "Stable Diffusion" can render endless of these creative images in seconds. Truly amazing. 🤯

Some of you are not being fooled . details to follow in a moment. Ponder some "human antennas".

What technology do these four antenans all have in common? This is a tricky question. I'll post the answer in this thread, after you've had time to think about it.

Did you hear about the two antennas that got married? The wedding was ordinary, but the reception was outstanding! Happy Friday everyone.

TGIF! Here's hoping you all start your weekend strong - with at least 3 dB margin 👌👌👌.

It's unusual to find an inexpensive dual-polarized broadband antenna on eBay. This one even featured Teflon PCBs! We had high hopes for microwave performance, and tested it up to 18 GHz. Full results here

We love trolling eBay and Alibaba for sketchy antennas. Here is some "18 dBi" Voodoo magic - BUSTED for $25. Have you seen a "sketchy" antenna ad? Please show it to us below. Actual test data at

While our focus is RF and antennas, I do love the mechanical aspects of lab work. For instance, using a rubber band belt to run a nut onto a fiberglass threaded rod is oddly satisfying. What's your favorite lab hack?

Congratulations to Carlos Cabezas @eb4fbz as the contest winner. He guessed -3 dBi, and the Eifagur's measured sideways gain was -1.1 dBi. Full results here #helium #HNT
