81. [TowerTalk] scarecrows (score: 1)

Somewhere in my archive, I have a picture of the previously mentioned blue heron, carrying a scarecrow away from my neighbor's koi pond in Pasadena, MD. Apparently it offended him...and it wasn't suf

Date: Wed, 26 Jul 2006 15:36:38 +0000
I made my original comments off-reflector, but perhaps it's worth summarizing: I had a 50' 45g foldover up in VT for several years. It was house bracketed below the fold, and unguyed. The bolts could

Adrian... Clive's comments are on-point. However, if you try to mix at the site, you will have to schlepp both bags of 'crete and water. It might be easier to mix below, and have a powered means to t

Good heavens! What's so hard about 234/f(MHz)= .25 lambda? Double it for a dipole. Adjust from there for localized variables. Add 5% for an inv. vee. Add 5% for any elevated radials on a vertical. Tu

Jim, you've opened a real can of worms. You can't say there is "data" to the contrary ... there may be legend, anecdote or even model studies but there are no validly conducted field strength studies

Dennis, The interaction between verticals and nearby receive antennas is well known, and not limited to those with elevated radials. In fact, any RX antenna within a few wavelengths of a TX antenna w

John asked: "Is there any simple way to measure the impedance of the ground radial system as you install them to know when you have enough of them in the ground?" Others suggested using a Megger or H

Larry, Ignoring the question of noise from the high-line completely, I would be concerned about living within the EM field from the blasted thing. You need to research RF exposure and cancer. I've go

TT: I'm sorry I raised this topic, frankly. Craig Clark is correct, there are no studies proving correlation between AC fields and any disease process. K6XN is correct, there are several ""post hoc e

Maybe I'm being particularly dense today, but for the life of me, I cannot see how F12 can have a 40m resonance without also having a resonance at 21MHz. Unless they had a 21Mhz parallel resonant cir

Gee, guys, this is another of those 'once a year' threads. The average 3 element beam has a half-power beamwidth of +/- 35 degrees. How closely do you really need to know where North is? How much eff

Doc's prices for 45g aren't too high. And the folding section is underpriced, due to its need for repairs....even if they've been completed. All you need is another 100 buck winch from Grainger, and

Scotty, I had a new one kicking around in my garage, and finally threw it out, I think. But if I still have it, it's in the same storage tub as my rotor and coaxes. I'll check. You can have it for po

Egad, Scotty, beam me up! OK...first, you DID get a quote, so I appologize. Second, although I value my time highly, if I can buy the tube for 8 bucks, and cut/drill in 15 minutes, it'd be worth mess
