61. [Amps] RF ground (score: 1)

If you got an 18 kA lightning strike the voltage on the ground at your tuner would rise to around 18 kV due to the impedance of the 5 foot ground lead. That is assuming you had a perfect ground at th

Colin, You are making it way too complicated. The best deterrent to lightning is to hang a rabbits foot on your tower. Actually several rabbits feet does a much better job. After all have you ever he

You may or may not be all right. Being that lightning is a constant current source it is going to develop it's strike current no matter how high it has to raise the voltage to get to the strike curre

Hi Doc, First be sure the antenna is tuned for the ham band. Most commercial antennas will not cover the 2 meter ham band. The antennas are broadly advertised sometimes to "cover 144 to 174 mhz". But

Telawave makes some inline couplers that are not too expensive. Much cheaper than from bird. They are 2 direction. You can get them with a meter or supply your own meter. 73 Gary k4FMX

I have an Amp supply LA-1000 amplifier. Can anyone tell me what the values of R7, R8, R9 and R10 in the metering circuit are ? I have a schematic for the LA-1000A, don't know if there is a difference

Isn't the idea of a glitch resistor to act as a fuse ? Don't you want it to open on a glitch? 73 Gary K4FMX

A window air conditioner cord is what you want. They have a molded plug on them, although they are not usually all that long. Can be found in Home Depot, Lows or probably most larger hardware stores.

I am not sure about the SB220 but the SB200 does not require a neutral connection on 220 volts. The fan is the only 120 volt item in the amp. It gets connected from one hot side to the center connect

Actually added antenna gain will help on receive too. As a matter of fact it will probably help more than on the transmit side. Added antenna gain narrows the beam width and reduces qrm and other noi

The ground and neutral wires are connected together in the breaker box. But you don't always know about how things are between the outlet and the breaker box. The whole idea of course is for the grou

Yes Bill, a simple rule is "ground should never carry any current". One note about ground fault breakers, if you are gong to install them on a 220 volt line they need to be double pole type just like

This is wrong. The neutral and ground are NEVER tied together except at the MAIN breaker panel. This is even true when in some installations the main house breaker is outside and the distribution pan

The only thing to remember is that you can not have gain in an antenna unless you have directivity. Gain in a particular direction comes from reducing it in other directions. 73 Gary K4FMX

Good points Tom. I was thinking more of the difference between 2 antennas of similar efficiencies. Dipole verses a multi element beam for instance. 73 Gary K4FMX

A small power supply capable of 15 to 20 volts should work to check the diodes. Put a resistor in series with the diodes and power supply. A 1k resistor should work fine. Then measure the voltage acr
