Groundstation v.2.0

My original intent was to purchase UHF and VHF yagi antennas to mount on the Az-El mount in order to save time, but it would seem that this is not possible. One of the best manufacturers of ham band antennas no longer makes circular polarized antennas, and other vendors are backordered into next year. There are manufacturers which are not, but these either have an inferior product or are asking more money than I have budgeted on this product.

The solution in the great tradition of makers everywhere will be to build the antennas, but this puts the project completion way outside of the original schedule. I will be writing the documentation to date and future activities to submit as a final deliverable for my class, but the final product of a functional ground station should not be expected before the end of October.
