If I know the city and state it'll take me about two minutes to check ALL the NOTAMS for that area and post them if desired. 73 Roger (K8RI) _______________________________________________ _________

I've spent quite a few hours the past couple of days using Google and searching archives to find some information on the 3002 Filter for the Henry 2002A 2-meter KW amp with no success. The amp works

I would think the rubber bushings used in electrical compression fittings for weatherproofing would work although I don't know how much room is in there. I used them on occasion with external connec
Let's see.... They're all good, somes just better'n others and the worst was fantastic...er...no...wait... Let me rephrase that... *Most* work, some better'n others. Some a *lot* better'n others. Wit
Not all RTVs use acetic acid. Silastic Brand RTV (TM) has both the regular and elecronic grades. In addition they also have different grades of adhesive (which definately do not pull off easily<G>)
The good old days of Gotham antennas and where as a teenager my rig weighed more than I did. Actually more than 40 years later that rig is still about twice my weight and I weight a lot more than I d
I keep seeing people say this, but after hacking for some time using a box cutter with a new blade I gave up and used cable cutters which worked much easier. Roger (K8RI) ___________________________
Hey now..., even at my age I like the sound of a pair of burned out "glass packs" tied to a BIG displacement V-8 and, no I'm not in my second child hood. Ask my wife and she'll tell you I never got
There were several towers that used this method for "folding over" available back in the 60s and 70s as I recall. I thought ROHN even offered one at some time, but I may be confusing it with a simil
I can't imagine a pole without two clamps. I built my own *with* two clamps which makes it very easy to move up to the next section. I also have an extra long pole which makes it easier to lift long
They accepted my 100 foot 45G with uses the concrete base. (no pier pin) The bottom of the base sets in pea gravel 5' down and has good drainage. If legs broke off I'd suspect poor drainage. I would
Assuming you have the room, just dig out around the tower base, say 6" or so and out about 10'. put in pea gravel up to within about 2" of the top of the base. Make sure the area is well drained. The
I think you will find even the top of the line, name brand, Black, UV resistant only last a few years. I used the "expensive" ones (1/2" wide by about 16" long) to hold the coax in place on the tower
Likewise I gave up but use a *LOT* of tape. I run the coax up the inside the tower to keep it out of the way, and tape the majority to one tower leg. Unfortunately the tape unusually can't and my wi
Ahhh...my rotator turns 520 degrees.<:-)) (PST-61) As I'm using rather large coax I use two turns, 18" in diameter, with the antenna at the center of rotation. The coax loop lays on the top plate of
Lordy...I'm running a gigabit network through 130' of CAT5e parallel to and within about 5 to 10 feet of all the coax runs to the tower. (75 to 90 feet) It then runs under the 75 half wave sloper to
