From the project
Radio frequency prototype boards (based on MegawattKS' design)
When designing radio frequency (RF) circuits, we cannot rely on traditional perfboards or breadboards. Suitable boards need a ground plane (essential for reducing noise in RF circuits), and should have minimal parasitic capacitances and inductances. Breadboards are especially unsuited, due to their RF circuit altering parasitics (mainly created by the horizontal signal rails, and the vertical power rails).
