Good Morning and Happy Thanksgiving to All ... I believe Jim meant the 1980 February and March issues of Ham Radio, for George, W6TC's 2 part series on "A New Class of Coaxial-line Transformers" ...
Good Afternoon Fudo, May I suggest before you invest into doing this, you review W6QHS/W6NL and N6BT's published materials on the "christmas tree". Both found the performance, regardless of which yag
Great sharing of thoughts, ideas, and even reality on this topic! As to some real world measurements, search ZL3IX on this link and review his experiences with Beverages above a fence ... http://www.
Tony, What is the clamping voltage on that specific Polyphaser unit? What is/are the operating voltages on the G-2800 rotor? If the operating voltages are higher than the clamping point on the Polyph
Well done Geo ... per an often shared motto on this forum, simply do what the manufacturer states to do ... B-) The smaller standard 5/16" bandwidth clamps (also known as "micros" or SAE J1508 Type M
Good Morning Doug, Not at all my friend. "WE" are using products for applications that were not part of the original design requirements here. Your 'real world' method has some performance limitation
Good Morning All, And despite a rather rude comment from Doug sent to directly to my email, here is a bit more information to HELP others perhaps. Again, we are using clamp products in applications t
Good Morning All, Doug, once again you are not examining the total joint situation. We will get to that in a moment as there are other variables to consider. You continue to make statements that may

Hi Herb, The "L" data is listed on Table 2 (page 4) in the manual PDF. It ranges from 13.5" to 28.375 depending on what parameter is most important for your performance there. Hope this helps! 73 de
Correction: 10.375" to 28.375" .... 73 de Billy, AA4NU The "L" data is listed on Table 2 (page 4) in the manual PDF. It ranges from 13.5" to 28.375 depending on what parameter is most important for y
In this case John, it is necessary as I believe that model uses center loaded elements there at the boom to element mount, so he will need to follow Stan's and your advice advice and and locate somet
A bit of advice ... as others noted the advertising can be a bit too vague and sadly there is indeed some real trash out there in the marketplace. When you see the word "stainless" don't stop there.
One point of concern ... and overall I agree with what Bob is saying here. If the mechanical/physical design between the two diameters is not correct, meaning there is an excessive measurable differe
Good Morning All, and I am reading along this with interest given past posts as to the what/where of properly using worm-gear type clamp products. Ward ... please note that some suppliers DO seem to
Wise decision Jeff, as I know you are fully committed to excellence there! As to the antioxidant, and related matters on this topic. It comes down to doing annual (as suggested by W3LPL/others) revie
Good Afternoon All, What Bryan is describing here is a SAE J1508 Type F HD clamp that uses a "staked" clamp design, which uses a two-piece housing is staked at each of the four corners. The true HD v
