Hi Brett, At least I don't recall recently seeing anyone quote an entire digest in order to reply to a single sentence (on this list anyway). cheers, Bob N7XY -- Bob Nielsen, N7XY n7xy (at) n7xy.net
I was taking a senior physics class in electronics at UCLA in 1962 and we spent some time studying vacuum tube circuits. The professor was asked if we were going to learn anything about transistors a
The Phoenix air-to-air missle, designed in the early 60's used a klystron transmitter with a pulse modulator tube which resembled a 4X250 without the cooling fins (liquid-cooled). I recall the design

I have had an AV640 (Hy-Gain, not MFJ although that is probably just a technicality) for over 3 years and am quite satisfied with the performance. It is mounted at ~13 feet and I have only used it fo

I recall a picture in the Los Angeles Times many years ago of Don Wallace, W6AM at the top of a tower when well into his 80s. Bob, N7XY _______________________________________________ See: http://www

I seriously doubt if PRB-1 would cover a tower used for GMRS. -- Bob Nielsen, N7XY n7xy (at) n7xy.net Bainbridge Island, WA http://www.n7xy.net _______________________________________________ See: ht
I recall seeing something similar in an old Handbook or Antenna Book. As to automating the tilting, watch the "Red Green Show" on PBS and you'll find a bunch of ideas. :^) Bob, N7XY _________________
There are certainly differences in the way they are fed. The 6BTV is bottom fed with radials, while the R8 has a choke balun and matching transformer (see <http://www.iol.ie/~bravo/r7_vertical.htm> f
I have an AV-640 (currently my only antenna) mounted on a 15 ft. piece of water pipe which is clamped to the eaves of my roof. It gets out as well on 20 as any other band (I've worked several countri
It's quite comprehensive and I found it to be worth the price (YMMV). The results it showed for the R8 led me in that direction, but after comparing the R8 to the AV-640, including price (the AV-640
Even "horse property" may not equate to lack of tower restrictions. When I moved to Tucson in 1984, I looked at a small development of 3.3 acre lots, figuring I would have room for more than one towe
Unfortunately, there is no response from that site. Assuming from the URL that you have some NASA connection, you might be able to locate some possibly relevant information on the phased arrays used
At the very least have the real estate agent get a copy of the CC&Rs and read them carefully. Most seem to be "boiler-plate" containing antenna restrictions, but I've seen some which had no such rest
Actually the house in question had CC&Rs but no HOA. I once looked at a house on acreage where the CC&Rs prohibited antennas, but specifically said "no restrictions on any livestock". The wording is
Hi Steve, The house I had with the restriction on liquor sales was in L.A. (West Hills). I figured the guy who sold the land to the developer must have been a teetotaler. L.A. was pretty antenna frie
