101. True North in One Sentence (again) (score: 1)
Author: broz@csn.net (John Brosnahan)

Of course it makes a difference in time if you go out and observe the sunrise and sunset and your horizon is different in one direction than the other (although you could compensate for it). But the

(No, sorry, but then the deviation is not correct either.) That is not what is being talked about. The use of declination in your case is for astronomical purposes--where the position of a star is d

Hi, Stu-- You have declination defined in the astronomical sense as is used with right ascension. This OPTICAL use is for astronomers and navigators. But declination is also used in the MAGNETIC fiel

A Too early (6:00 a.m.) to get into the deep math but thicker wall is ALWAYS stronger and larger diameter is ALWAYS stronger. Any decrease in strength MUST be due to a change in the material itself i

One word of caution on using "old amplifiers" (pre-WARC designs) on 12 meters. Most old amplifiers used a plate RF choke with a series resonance near 24-25 MHz. Operating one of these amps on 12 mete

106. Mast Strength (score: 1)
Author: broz@csn.net (John Brosnahan)
Date: Mon, 02 Dec 1996 10:14:27 -0600
Without knowing the exact material it is impossible to say for sure. But if one makes an assumption that the yield strength of the material is 60,000 psi then the survivability of the mast is 70.4 mp

Mother nature looks out for guys like you! 1) The mast is relatively flexible 2) Tension the guys to make the mast to vertical 3) The tensions in guys of different angles will be different, but that

Stan, It isn't an ought question--it happens by its very nature! Take a TV slip up mast --it is flexible enough to move around until the horizontal components are in equilibrium. Same thing applies t

Except that the guys are not in the same plane as the tower, hence the spec based on 45 degree angle. To understand this take the worst case example where the tower is vertical (naturally) and the g

What does the dog do? Just give the birds something to aim at other than the tower? My golden eagle isn't phased by my three dogs sitting under the tower and barking. And he seems to enjoy riding on

You can't assume that 40M is clean -- it never is. So you will really need both 20M and 40M filters. Typical transmitters only reduce their 2nd harmonic by 40-50 dB leaving a lot of signal on 20M fro

Cam followers are the easist answer I have come up with and are what the other makers of guy rings use (at least for their bigger stuff). They are designed to be supported on one end and are complete

I disagree with the one is enough, although my reference material is buried deep enough that I haven't found it the last time or two I looked. The original swaging tool stuff is from Nicopress and a

This problem is not limited to N-connectors, nor to RG-213. But the "old" style N-connectors are very susceptible to this problem in even short runs. The captivated contact N-connector--the UG-1185

Steve, These calculations don't quite work out this easily since the vees are vertically separated and the plane of grip loop has to be twisted to about 45 degrees to the plane of the leg--stretching
