    Would you be interested in custom building one of these or would you recommend going to Bob's shop to get one?

    It's not really worth my time to make them for-profit because they're so expensive to build I would totally recommend just going to Bob and buying one of the antennas that he has on his display and they are really easy to modify for your particular application
     
    bored silly and Tlsollen Thank this.
