Different types of antennas manufactured by Chronics (Bicone,Discone,Dipole Horn Patch etc..)
Were demonstrated with various Antenna parameter measurements.
“Drone Jammer” & Log periodic Antenna was most interesting along with Surveillance (up to 1.8Ghz) SDR for Intersecting Enemy signals. It was liked by participants.
The EMI/EMC setup is quite modern and very useful.
