New EMDrive cavity and board prepared for measurements.
A precise power sensor, cables (just assembled), adapters and attenuators are all rated for 26GHz.
I will be able to tell soon exactly how much power the amp is delivering and will be able to measure the cavity properties and resonance condition.
After these tests I will optimize the feed antenna for maximum power delivery. I will try dipole and loop.
The cavity has two ports: One with the feed antenna at lambda/4 distance to the big plate and another with a short stub for feedback.
