Sector Antenna version 2 teardown

I decided to redesign the sector antenna backplate/reflector to make it more robust. As you can see the hot-glued antenna standouts were inadequate to deal with even transport vibrations. I have decided to use nylon  screw anchors the next time. The main differences between this and version one are as follows. Most noticeable is the copper coating on the reflector assembly. I used copper gasket spray which can be purchased at automotive parts house. The second difference is the copper insulator at the center of the antenna element. A few other people have used this method, I found it was far superior for holding everything in place and aligned. There are no other modifications done.
