Did you receive a private message? We can’t see “PM’s“ and I don’t see any posts on your threads offering an aerial antenna PCB.

What I’m trying to ascertain is how you were contacted.

You advised you were contacted on the forum, I can’t see any posts responding to your request so did you receive any private messages on the forum from a forum member?
You can see if you’ve any PM’s by clicking on the “envelope “ icon in the top right of the page.
