open sky efficiency OSE - RF Cafe Forums

The original RF Cafe Forums were shut down in late 2012 due to maintenance issues - primarily having to spend time purging garbage posts from the board. At some point I might start the RF Cafe Forums again if the phpBB software gets better at filtering spam.

Below are the old forum threads, including responses to the original posts.

Open sky efficiency usually refers to GPS as far as I know. It is a measurement of the antenna efficiency when the handheld is facing the sky w/o obstructions. Not really sure what it has to do with LMR.
