Sagax Communications engineers took advantage of the beautiful late summer weather one more time. This time they tested our direction finding (DF) antenna SDA-500 on the field. These open-air antenna field trials are really helpful and advantageous. Firstly because equipments like antennas and other hardwares are usually behave different in a real natural environment. Secondly, the engineers also have a more difficult situation out of the lab. Hence these open-air antenna field trials are essential in the testing of our products. In conclusion, these open-air activites are always end up having a great and useful time outdoors.
