Sink effect occurs at 1 Hz and below. Just the skin depth is deeper than most practical conductors. My fourth edition Reference Data for Radio Engineers says skin depth at 100 MHz is 0.00035 inch. Si

No matter how broad (at least in practical widths under a couple feet) a strap, when the electrical length gets to be a quarter wave or an odd multiple of a quarter wave, at RF its an open circuit. 7

Your choice of battery is odd, strange, and poorly selected. Gel cell batteries are limited in charging and discharging current and I suspect your power supply will charge them too fast for their own

I believe the Tentec crystal circuit is one of series crystals with a shunt "coupling" capacitor to ground between each pair of crystals. If so you get narrower bandwidth by increasing the values on

End fed wires, off center fed windoms, and verticals are the worst antennas at inducing RF in the shack. Quarter wave counterpoise wires hooked to the rig and open at the other end do act as a RF con

Lots of counterpoise at the antenna help it radiate by reducing losses of ground currents that contribute to antenna radiation patterns. Counterpoises at the radio can sometimes lower then RF voltage

Its a combination of crystals and capacitors that set the bandwidth. Its probably more profitable to buy the whole filter from TT or Inrad. But to do it at home, go hunt up QST, and Handbook articles

Once you've measured the values that set the limits of the speed range you wish, you should be able to use a fixed (or adjustable) series resistor to set the high and a resistor shunting the panel va

Unless the "pot" is a digital encoder you surely can adjust end point and range with a resistor in series with the pot and another in shunt with the pot. To set the series resistor, wire it in and ru
