Hi, Any one out there actually experience a case of Mosley trap failure; as used on their larger trapped beams: Pro series, TA-34, etc. If so, what power level, and if at legal level, at what vswr??
Aloha, Rcv'd many responses. Thanks to all, even those who don't care for Mosley antennas; yes, I heard the talk at Dayton last May, hi. Were the Mosley folks upset -- you bet. They requested an oppo
Boy, even on Christmas Eve, I can step into it!! I wrote, a bit ago: Steve replied, and rightly so: for about to - Well, my source was the tall lady in the Mosley booth on the main floor within Hara
Tom, W8JI, has written, in part: Well I have just recently purchased 10,000 feet, 10 spools of #16 solid copper radial wire; several hundred dollars. Now I can't use it. I have been "invited" to remo
Aloha, A few days ago I was asked by someone on here to post info on leasing plantation lands for horses here on Kauai. I have evidently deleted the particular piece, so apology for bandwidth in hope
Hi again, With my vertical triple bander up on the roof deck, have noticed that the vertical element and radials need to be a bit shorter to resonate within the frequency ranges of interest. For exam
Aloha LB, Boy, very sorry to hear of your discomfort these past several days; sure helps open our eyes to how we take so many things for granted when they are withdrawn!! We had a similar experience
Aloha, I believe I have successfully transformed my elevated "ground plane", two elevated radial 10 meter Gladiator into a half wave vertical, center fed. I am sitting out here near mid-Pacific liste
Aloha, a few have asked what test report/Dayton talk did I have reference to in the below statement: ordered a Force 12 C4 antenna. This is the C3 with the addition of a 37 foot dipole element for 40
Most of us avoid the smaller coax because the loss to rcv'd signals! To me, for runs over several feet, I will not use the small coax because of loss to signals and perhaps the chance of missing a w
Aloha to all, I have rcvd a few responses to my assertion that the loss of RG58 coax, in longer runs, could cause one to miss the weakest signals in the rcv mode. Well, these two responses in particu
Hi, I want to get more of my xmt signal out to the antenna field, and have been thinking about replacing my run of LMR 400 with LMR 900 -- it is a lot more expensive than what the 400 cost, but also
Ok, I have nine of these things; elevated, with four elevated radials each so far; with plans now to add more radials. Also, vines have found the radials to be a great place to hang on to while sprea
Hi, I don't think it would make a bit of difference. It is the capacity loading to ground from the radials the drags the resonant frequency of the vertical element/ radial system down below the band
