I’m planning to get my Technician license next week and then order a beeline transmitter.
Most of the links on the beeline site are out of date, so does anyone have a good source for a radio and handheld yagi? Or would anyone be interested in letting me borrow their’s for some flights at OFest?
I use a Kenwood TH-F6 for radio location with an arrow antenna. The kenwood is probably over kill but receives just about everything, AM, FM – wide & narrow, CW, USB, and LSB. I use it for a satellite rig with the arrow satellite antenna.
Here’s a link for arrow antenna. They’re hard to be beat for the price.

For a cheap starter radio, would this work? Looks like it covers 440.
Yeah, that should work for tracking. It’s a scanner, so you’re only receiving and not transmitting, but that’s o.k. for radio direction finding.
