Extra Class
The highest level of amateur radio license with full operating privileges on all amateur bands. Most technical exam. 50 questions, 37 needed to pass.
What happens to the radiation pattern of an unterminated long wire antenna as the wire length is increased?
What is the purpose of feeding an off-center-fed dipole (OCFD) between the center and one end instead of at the midpoint?
