behold! the ghettotenna mk2!
i decided i wanted a better antenna for my bct15, so i bought a radioshack 70-176 multi-band discone antenna, some zip ties and 10 feet of 1″ pvc pipe. i cut 3′ of pipe off, assembled the antenna and stuck it on the end of the pipe, which i then zip-tied to a desk. it’s so ghetto, it’s awesome and its reception is much improved over the previous ghettotenna (mk1) which was constructed out of a radioshack vhf dipole (rabbit-ears) with a 75ohm balun with an f->bnc adapter on it, connected via rg6.
