I'm claiming no expertise, but taking the nice figure with colored lines I make the following observations: 7' is BAD, for everything. 28' wins the vertical race, out to 60 deg. 28, 42, and 56 are eq

Hi Tim, What's the orientation of the "radials"? Are they maybe parallel to the antenna? Cut to be reflectors? Have you compared that antenna to a higher dipole in about the same orientation? I'm sur

I have a good working G-1000DXA controller for sale. They are $350 at HRO, so maybe $250, but I don't see any comparables. How 'bout it? Wilson W4BOH _______________________________________________ _

I'm not a bit surprised. The PWM speed controller I bought for Pete's solar panels works fine, but I didn't look at RFI. It hasn't been a problem for him, but it's about 100' from his ant. And it's n

I don't know anything at all about the equipment you mention, BUT... I'm quarantined, so have time to butt in. Being familiar with control systems in general, I'd say it's unlikely you have a counter

It's often worth the time to dig for the reasonable price. As people become more helpless they become more naïve. That said, I can't find any cheaper. If I had to have one, I'd drill the head of a sp

Never had one, but obviously the "real" solution. If using rope, it could be rigged as a halyard and removed from the bottom when the job is done. One could even leave some junk rope rigged and pull

It's incredible how much trouble we'll go to to "make something work" while avoiding the simple. Yes, I can see the charm, if you must have coax to get out of the house to the antenna. I've used end
