Kelly, Yes, you are right. I was mixing the two. The TX38 was the WRTC variant. Sorry for the confusion. 73/jeff/ac0c www.ac0c.com alpha-charlie-zero-charlie --Original Message-- From: ve4xt@mymts.ne
Rex, Ask around in your club. Within the CADXA you have some very knowledgeable guys there. 73/jeff/ac0c www.ac0c.com alpha-charlie-zero-charlie Typically the antennas are 1/4 WL apart (246/MHz=Ft) i
Is a tailtwister T2X adequate to turn a DB36? The beam the guy is putting would be located just slightly below the top of the surrounding trees in a residential neighborhood so I dont expect the beam
What would you recommend? Can I do it with a small RAK? 73/jeff/ac0c www.ac0c.com alpha-charlie-zero-charlie --Original Message-- From: Kelly Taylor Sent: Saturday, August 29, 2015 12:44 AM To: Jeff
Gary do you recall the specific P/N you used? 73/jeff/ac0c www.ac0c.com alpha-charlie-zero-charlie Surf over to buyheatshrink.com. I get all my adhesive-lined tubing there. They have 4:1 as well as 3
I've had both; there's not much of a comparison. If you want a directional low noise antenna, the bev is a far better choice than the loop, even if it's relatively short. 73/jeff/ac0c www.ac0c.com al
Correction. Model is C3S. 73/jeff/ac0c www.ac0c.com alpha-charlie-zero-charlie Our FD CS3 built to book specs is resonant a bit high on 15m and pretty high on 10m. If you have a set of known-good dim
What is possible in the worst case and what is likely seem two different things. I've not seen EMT do anything other than just bend (which it does pretty easily) and buckle (if you really really abus
In my experience guys with antennas close to the house should do a RFI generator "bug hunt" a couple of times a year. Pickup by the antenna from the many directly radiated or re-radiated noise source
LCP is really a PIA to inject. PTFE is a lot easier to handle and I think it's probably cheaper, plus you can grind up the scrap and reinject it meaning you get nearly 100% use of the material - wher
Worked OK for me but the dip is subtle and to get an accruate reading you need to minimize the coupling once you are in the ballpark. 73/jeff/ac0c www.ac0c.com alpha-charlie-zero-charlie I don't thin
The G3 data on the type 52 looks pretty good. It sure seems like a side by side bench test of the two materials would prove to be very interesting. 73/jeff/ac0c www.ac0c.com alpha-charlie-zero-charli
Im considering a LPDA on a 25G and had planned to use a T2X for that - but wonder if something with a bit more brake would not be a better choice. We get frequent ice + wind here. Whats the strongest
Thanks for the guys who have replied so far. The top section is a flat top with a bearing. The rotor would sit down at the junction of the first and second section point. The antenna under considerat
I want to focus the question at hand on turning and braking ability. The nightmare around this part of the country is to wake up and see your beam pin-wheeling around due to a brake failure or the fa

I would second Jim's advice on locktite red. I would use that only on something that I really wanted to never come off. In some cases I have had to use a torch on a nut bound by red. Looking at the s
The fellow originally asked what coax to run. I have a comment there. RG11 is fine. If you say it's a budget consideration, and it's 80/160, and it does not need to last 100 years, then lay that RG11
Gentlemen, I really really do appreciate all of the email attempting to rectify my misunderstanding of proper coax line terminology. However that is a debate of miniature that I'm sure the original p
I see this a lot - need to get the elevated radials up xx feet or whatever. But I don't know how to square that with the N6BT QEX data which shows a improvement in efficiency as the radial is lifted
