Drones for DXing
« on: April 10, 2014, 0001 UTC »
It will be interesting when drones come down in price enough that DXers, or at least DXing clubs, can afford one. Think of the possibilities of putting an SDR in a drone, sending it up, and transmitting the data stream back down to the fans on the ground.

They would also be useful for helping drape my wire antenna over the tip-top branch in the tree out back too.
Or even to just hold the antenna wire up a few hundred feet :-0
