Slotted waveguide antennas

Does anyone have any .pdf datasheets or .xls spreadsheets with dimensions and/or calculations for slotted waveguide antennas like those that that Trevor Marshall guy on the net made?

The reason Im asking is that I have access to a CNC milling machine, and I should be able to get them made cheap. Im looking to make a prototype + test it then do a batch run.

I dont know shit about linux, AP's or Auckland, but I like to think I know a fair bit about antennas and electromagnetics.

If you check out the Buy/Sell/Exchange thread you will see shadow is making them already. Not that a little competition hurt anyone!!!

I am sure he will let you in on his secrets!

Stretch,

There are a number of pitfalls involved with just milling these antennas, Yes some of thie information is in the public realm but there are quite a number of issues that had to be dealt with and the calcs have to be refined so as to provide the gain we are getting from ours.

I have tooled up to manufacture these on a reasonably large scale and could be persuaded to provede them as either partillay finished ot finished items at a reasonable cost. I have allready ironed out many of the issues and we get a 1.2:1 VSWR as they sit.

You may want to check out the specs...
