Speaking of reflectors and directors, some readers might already have an idea.

That's right.

It's the Yagi antenna!

Friends who were born in the 80s or 90s, whether single or not, might have a slight impression of a certain device:

It's a fishbone-shaped device.

It looks like a clothes hanger, and a sturdy one can actually be used as a clothes hanger.

It's mainly set up on rooftops for receiving television signals.

This antenna is the Yagi antenna.

It is a standard end-fired antenna composed of an active element, a passive reflector, and several passive directors.

However, the name Yagi does not mean it consists of eight antennas.

It is named after its inventor, Yagi Hideji:

This antenna was developed by Yagi Hideji and his student Ueda Tarō.

Therefore, the full name is also called the Yagi-Ueda antenna.

Yagi Hideji.

You can tell his ethnicity just from his name.

He was born in 1881 and passed away in 1976.

But unlike his fellow citizens who barked rabidly, Yagi Hideji was a very solid anti-war advocate.

He was punished multiple times for openly promoting anti-war rhetoric, even losing a professorship.

Besides.

Yagi Hideji's position in history is also very, very unique.

It's a situation where laypeople know nothing, but experts are left in awe.

To put it this way:

If anyone could have possibly changed the course of World War II, Yagi Hideji would be one of them.

He once discovered the theoretical and technical structure of a "high-frequency directional antenna," a core technology for manufacturing high-performance radars.

So he submitted a paper and applied for a patent.

And recommended its technical application to the relevant authorities.

But unfortunately.

This invention did not attract Neon's attention.

So Yagi Hideji left the Asian Region with his patent in hand and moved to the Europe and America Region.

Unexpectedly, Yagi's antenna technology sparked great interest with the John Bulls and the Eagles.

And soon it was put into practical use for the invention of military radars for ships and aircraft.

Then a very interesting scene occurred:

During the Battle of Midway, Neon carriers were not equipped with radar.

Their means of observing Eagle airplanes were the lookout's eyes.

However, as fate would have it....

That day, the Midway area was cloudy.

By the time Eagle dive bombers flew over the Japanese, the lookouts spotted them.

And by that time, it was already too late.

Within just five minutes.

The carriers Chicheng, Kaga, and Soryu were all hit by bombs.

These so-called "destiny five minutes" became the turning point of the entire Pacific War.

After suffering a devastating defeat at Midway, the Neon navy still retained considerable strength, enough to disdain the army fools.

But in the battle of Guadalcanal Island, the Neon navy was severely weakened in the war of attrition.

A very important factor in this was still radar.

The core technology that Neon mastered was used by the enemy in actual battles against them.

While they themselves were completely oblivious.

This is truly one of World War II's bizarre scandals.

Later, Neon forcibly drafted Yagi Hideji into a research institute, putting him in charge of radio frequency weapon research.

And then this big shot did another wave of bold moves:

First, he was all show and no substance.

Of course.

This might also be because his capabilities were indeed limited.

In short, until the GG base was overrun, Yagi Hideji didn't yield any meaningful results.

In addition....

He ended up getting six of his fellow lab members on the red side.

Yes, on the red side.

Three of them even went on to the Bear side, participating in the radar research of the MiG series.

Therefore, both the Yagi antenna and its inventor have rather legendary stories.

Returning the topic to our original discussion.

The advantage of this antenna is its simple structure but high directivity.

Smokers can make it directly with the tin foil inside cigarette packs, or other metals will work too.

It's a very practical piece of equipment.

"And the heavenly tribulation in the Damo Realm apparently employs this highly practical reception principle."

At the tribulation site, watching Yang Zhengchu undergoing his third round of tribulation, Huang Pu Donglai sighed:

"Simple and efficient, combining both.

Perhaps this is what they call Taoist simplicity...."

Lin Ziming on the side:

"...."

Is this how they apply the term Taoist simplicity?

As Lin Ziming silently pointed this out in his heart.

Zhuo Yuanxin, standing by the control panel, once again walked over swiftly.

Because the previous major pieces of news were delivered by this disciple of Zeng Gu Cheng.

Seeing him approach once again, everyone couldn't help but straighten up subconsciously.

Thinking there might be breaking news.

Zeng Gu Cheng directly asked:

"Xiaozhuo, is there another situation?"

"Ah?"

Zhuo Yuanxin was puzzled and shook his head unconsciously:

"Not particularly, just that the command center sent a summary, and Captain Lin asked me to mention it to you."

Zeng Gu Cheng finally let out a subtle sigh of relief.

To be honest.

The crew have already collected information of far greater value than expected during this tribulation.

There is still body-crafting material stored in cryogenic microbe containers yet to be analyzed.

At this point, if any new discoveries were revealed, Zeng Gu Cheng wouldn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Then he took a moment to catch his breath and invited everyone to sit down and take a rest.

Then he spoke to Zhuo Yuanxin:

"Xiaozhuo, what has the command center asked you to convey?"

Zhuo Yuanxin, still methodically following procedure, took out a report, humorously contrasting even more with Wang Qiang's straightforwardness:
