Antenna Mod Request

[SpacePilotMax]

I am just wondering if anybody would like to make an antenna mod with parts that can transmit data? Especially the HUGE ones, stock doesn't have any of those. Please and thank you!

There are two antenna mods out there is RT well forgot and some branches of it and there is AntennaRange.

EDIT- RT http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/83305-1-0-2-RemoteTech-v1-6-5-2015-05-18

And AntennaRange http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/83305-1-0-2-RemoteTech-v1-6-5-2015-05-18

EDIT- And if you want parts AIES and there are a couple more.

What are you asking for, exactly? Stock antennae already transmit data, that's pretty much their primary function. Do you just want bigger antennae?

[Rocketfeline]

Or a big dish? Maybe even those cliche massive static dish you see in most nasa spacecraft like voyager?

I'd love to see some sort of deployable comm array for surface bases

Think that you need to look at kerbal side, I think it is that added ground base stuff.

Thanks for the AIES one! And I only made this thread because the RemoteTech glitched my antennas and they won't transmit data anymore.

You want RT antennas to act like stock ?

EDIT- IF your using RT you have to have a connection to transmit if you un-installed RT and have a problem transmitting then you might have a CFG still somewhere thats your problem on added mods but if you deleted the plugin and only to keep the parts you need alittle patch to make them stock is all.

Where can I get that patch or how can I make it?

You will need to delete all but the parts folder and whats in the rest of the RT folder delete this is a rough patch

My tech tree has both an antenna branch and antennas sorted by range and size. AIES does have a large variety.
