amazing new antenna technology

  • Article

Apparently a professor (and ham radio enthusiast) from the University of Rhode Island has invented a new kind of radio antenna that performs as well as antennae three to nine times larger.  The article mentions walkie-talkies as a possible application – I wonder if this could be used to shrink those big cell phone towers that seem to be sprouting on every hill?

    Interesting post - Thanks. Might have used a different link with the same content since the page you referenced contained popups attempting to socially engineer users into installing spyware.
