21. [TowerTalk] Ameritron Remote Controlled Switches (score: 1)

This topic was discussed on the AMPS list quite recently. In practice, N connectors are *current* limited. Their center pin is quite small, basically similar to a BNC. They will handle several ampere

Given your expertise and diligence with assembling N connectors, you probably haven't been taking many chances, especially at HF. Perfect N connectors will handle 1.5kW ICAS at 432MHz (Reference: K1F

The British Navy show off this technique every year in a race between crews from two different bases. The aim is to transport a complete field gun through a wall, over a wall and across a "ravine". T

You don't need another meter - just a good, small dummy load. How accurately does the meter indicate a good 50 ohm load, at 144MHz and at lower frequencies? My guess would be that the meter isn't too

There is information on my web site about stacking VHF/UHF antennas, and basically the same principles apply to HF/VHF. You're unliekly to see much effect from the VHF antennas on the C4XL; but if yo

Thank you - I just learned something. If you're using a return loss bridge (three resistors and a diode, details in QST etc) you see a very sharp, deep null in the reflected signal. The better the ma

Maybe we're being spoiled by these modern slow-tuning transceivers. It's perfectly possible to set the 259 to 10kHz at 7MHz, which is closer than almost any real antenna system could recognise. There

The problem is more than the dB loss of individual connectors. The loss of a PL-259 is mainly due to a small impedance bump - it isn't a constant-impedance 50 ohm connector. The reflection from one P
