XELO doesn´t seem to be listed for more then 5 kW on 1010 kHz, guess they are just like the hams when it´s up to power. In any case they still seems to be operational since they have been
Interesting! Can you specify? 73 SM2EKM -- _______________________________________________ See: http://www.mscomputer.com for "Self Supporting Towers", "Wireless Weather Stations", and lot's more. Ca
I would run high Z open wire feeder to it, it will then even work on 75m with very little degraded performance compared to a 1/2wl for 75m, less then a dB. Best is to get a good balanced tuner, somet
I must correct myself. If you use insulated wire and dont run too high power, that is what I mean below. Guess the best/safest is not to let the wire get in contact with the tree. Sorry for the error
If possible I would do away with the balun and run 400-600 ohm line all the way to the tuner, and use a balanced tuner. Also there are some 300 ohm TV twin lead out there that are quite lossy so that
Finaly SM2DMU / 7S2E got his monster Yagi up in the air. 4 el full size for 80, weight of antenna about 4000 pounds http://www.sk2kw.se/SK2KW%20WEB/SM2DMU/SM2DMU%20SM2HTF%20Index.htm then click 80m y
When the antenna was down on the ground I was there to inspect and it´s truly massive. Forexample, the center sections of the elements are 8 inch dia. Antenna was ready last year but then the w
Some people did have problems with this link I gave. Try this instead: http://www.7s2e.sk2kw.se Then click 80m Yagi in top left corner. 73 Jim SM2EKM -- ______________________________________________
Yes why not, then this hobby might be interesting again! Too many "over to you" "make your call" "good buddy" people around. 73 Jim SM2EKM -- _______________________________________________ See: http

I can hear my HAM-4 click even inside the house! Tower is close to the house however but still. 73 Jim -- _______________________________________________ See: http://www.mscomputer.com for "Self Supp
Since I have (now had) a linear loaded 160m vertical I wanted to try to measure if that loading gave any loss. So here goes: Case: 100ft vertical with linear loading 26ft up and down, resonant at 189

Yes indeed a hoot. However this HB9ABX fellow got a correct opinion about the EH-"thing", I refuse to call it an antenna. If you understand German here goes: Kommentar von HB9ABX: Ausserdem habe ich
How do you mean now? At multipels 1/2 wl electrical transmission line length the load Z will be seen at the other end, i e it will be transparent. 73 Jim _____________________________________________
