181. [TowerTalk] Stranded vs solid wire (score: 1)
Author: cebik@utkux.utcc.utk.edu (L. B. Cebik)
Date: Tue, 23 Dec 1997 14:42:26 -0500 (EST)
Pete, Well, long ago, someone advertised that they used stranded wire in their product because of its superiority, and those who bought it, also bought the line and invented reasons why stranded was

182. [TowerTalk] Modeling loads and transmission lines: part 3 (score: 1)

I have just placed part 3 of the series on "modeling loads and transmission lines" at the site, the first of 2 sections on modeling transmission lines. Part 4 is yet to come. I hope the new section i

183. [TowerTalk] 40-meter quads (score: 1)
Author: cebik@utkux.utcc.utk.edu (L. B. Cebik)
Date: Tue, 30 Dec 1997 10:01:05 -0500 (EST)
Interesting how questions occur in batches. Without prior note, 2 folks in very different places asked me a couple of questions about the potential for quads--both full-size and shrunken--on 40 meter

Date: Tue, 30 Dec 1997 13:43:14 -0500 (EST)
The major lobes will indeed be broadside to the wire, as if it were a dipole. Sloping the wires into a Vee simply reduces the side nulls--the greater the slope, the greater the reduction. With low an

185. [TowerTalk] Last part of modeling loads and lines (score: 1)

I have just placed at my site the last part of the series on modeling with loads and transmission lines. The last part deals with modeling transmission line stubs, whether as parts of matching system

186. [TowerTalk] 80 meter wire beam (score: 1)
Author: cebik@utkux.utcc.utk.edu (L. B. Cebik)
Date: Sat, 1 Nov 1997 06:45:51 -0500 (EST)
Lee, Your modeling of the 75-meter reversible wire beam looks to be very sound. The loss relative to a flattop version is real, since the elements are always below the peak height. The TO angle is co

187. [TowerTalk] Johnson Matchbox (score: 1)

Date: Sat, 1 Nov 1997 09:52:14 -0500 (EST)
I have heard the Johnson Matchbox described as a modified Z match, which is not quite right. Having just obtained one, I thought I might describe the circuit, which appears to be very similar to the

I have placed the notes I recently distributed on the Johnson Matchbox (with some additions on the Annecke link-coupled tuner and a simplified schematic of them) at the site as additions to the entry

W.E. Sabin, W0IYH, did an extensive article on the 1:1 current choke in the July, 1997, QEX. He found that 100 bead type 43 chokes could handle more power than the traditional 50 bead type 77 chokes.

I have placed the latest 10-10 News column (coax short story) and Low Down episode (making yur ATU work on any band) at the site. Nothing especially new here--just a review of some fundamentals. -73-

Possibly (but do not know) more even characteristics across the bands or even wider SWR bandwidth, plus a tad more F-B here and there, etc. Wish all spec sheets included curves of kety characteristi

Date: Fri, 7 Nov 1997 07:03:32 -0500 (EST)
I regret that many of the notes, either to me or to the list, relative to the Cushcraft published gain number, have taken an unfortunate turn. They look like attempts to either support or detract fro

I have saved some 55 messages so far related to interest in the re-emergence of a link-coupled tuner on the market--and I know some did not get saved along the way. Interest is split between low and

As promised, I have placed a trial draft of a link coupler tutorial at the site. It is listed under a new subdivision on transmission lines and impedance matching to make it easier to find. The 5 par

Jim, I happen to have my small Match Box open. It too has had the relay and all removed. The tap is at the 3rd turn. This appears to be consistent with the paperwork. The remaining turns of the link

Both the Scotsmans Delight and the 1-element Rotary were Lew McCoy articles in QST originally. In those days, aluminum tubing was not a hardware store item, so the 1-element rotary was made from elec

Steve, Your situation of wanting a compensating capacitive reactance to reduce SWR at 3.8 MHz for a resonant 3.5 MHz dipole has several possibilities. First, HAMCALC (from VE3ERP) has some utilities
