Well, I cannot comment about the 509 PTO because I never laid hands on one. But I have worked on plenty of other PTO tuned gear. Properly done, the cores have very little contact with the coil forms,

Well, down here in the monsoon belt where we typically get more than 100 thunderstorm days a year, we seem to prefer separate ground systems for the tower and the shack. BUT.... Most of us who would

Weeel - a light bulb current indicator is a pretty fair indicator of the presence of RF. And it's been used as one for many years. But tests back in the 1930's comparing brightnesses to determine the

Another discussion that brings back memories! No, a single lamp no matter how coupled, won't show balance. That takes two lamps, one for each side of the transmission line, at the same time. And at t
