21. [Towertalk] rope (score: 1)
Author: jljarvis@adelphia.net (jljarvis)
Date: Tue, 11 Jun 2002 13:04:55 -0400
Jimmy, You don't want poly rope. It UV degrades, doesn't hold knots well, and is not overly strong. You don't want Nylon rope, either, as it's too stretchy. Great for anchor lines for boats....lousy

It's interesting to observe the assumptions we make about mechanical gear. to wit: * 1/8" stainless aircraft cable breaking strength is similar to that of 1/2" braided dacron. It's also a lot harder

Privately, I observed that the most likely problem was IR drop, or a bad relay. Let me repeat it publicly: Even though the 'run' is only 3 feet, there is EITHER an IR drop somewhere in the circuit, o

One point, two questions: 1) Most (?)(many) commercial towers which break up their guy systems are operating transmitters on a single frequency, and can choose appropriate guy lengths to minimize re-

Date: Wed, 26 Jun 2002 04:17:32 -0400
When I was a kid, the ARRL handbook offered 468/f as an approximation of the length of a dipole @ 1/2 wave height. It was stated rather clearly that trimming would be required to accomodate site-var

Mauri, You are absolutely right. I wouldn't DREAM of messing with a complex multi-element array without prior modelling. In fact, I am in process of doing just that, with a stack of lpda's right now.

Author: jljarvis@adelphia.net (jljarvis)
Date: Sun, 30 Jun 2002 13:34:27 -0400
It would be inappropriate--and probably negative in impact, for out of state hams to comment on a NY legislative matter. However, if this law does, indeed, specify a 95 foot limit, it's a gross mista

Folks, I have a .250 wall, 3", 32' boom, with one splice, at the 20' point. Would be good for a 3 el 40, if any US east coaster is contemplating building. Or, it works for its intended purpose, which

I read the Polyphaser piece with some amusement. He's right-on with what he's proposing, but as many have observed, we don't need to be up 24/7, and the thorough approach is not cost effective. Try a

One last post on this topic? It was a strange year. Antenna/DX/Contest forums were interesting. Hooking up with old friends was the high point. The contest dinner, though packed, was no indication of

Based on their QST ads, and the discontinuation of the foldover product, it was my belief that Rohn had adopted a 'harvest-withdraw' strategy for the amateur market. Not displaying would be consisten

Jimbo.... Shoot some rope over the pines, and hoist up elevated GP's. Make at least 3 radials @ 5% longer than resonance, and go to town. You can make it a dual bander by using transmitting twinlead

Ford, I misread your initial post... "The bolt holes in the TUBES (my emphasis) were enlarged." I had assumed it was the hinge-tab holes which had enlarged..but elongation of the tower leg holes sugg

Pete, all: I agree that a simple model is the right approach. A re-read of PV's book is probably in order, as well. My own experience with out-of-phase stacks was inconclusive, but not rigorous, as i
