1. Topband: Elevated Radials (score: 1)
Author: Ken Brown <ken.d.brown@hawaiiantel.net>
Date: Sat, 05 Aug 2006 09:19:18 -1000
Every discussion of elevated radials versus on the ground radials I have seen, so far, just sort of ignores the difference in the length of the vertical radiator. Many of you may be fortunate enough

The ARRL web site has announced the passing of Cliff Buttschardt, K7RR. Cliff's contributions to AMSAT are mentioned in that article and in links from it. What is not mentioned, and may be of interes

Perhaps the JAs would like to transmit in their sliver of band at 1907.5 to 1912.5 kHz, and listen at a stated QSX frequency. When that was the only band they had, I found it much easier to work them

Okay, so now the wire is clean and shiny. What about the ceramic form on which the coil is wound? Isn't there now going to be a residue of silver oxide or other possibly conductive crud left between

If you are adding a stub to your transmission line system, aren't you going to need a tee to connect it anyway? Would you not want to cut the stub to the right length with the tee included? Why would

Hi Dennis, I was probably the operator who QSOed you this weekend at KH6LC. I operated roughly 9 hours of the contest, and Lloyd KH6LC filled in for me when I had to take breaks. I remember a couple

Those of us who have worked with VHF, UHF and microwave radio systems, particularly those which simultaneously transmit and receive using the same antenna, are familiar with the three port device cal

Trees no doubt absorb some RF. Those of us who use trees as supports often do so because they are our best option. If you have towers use them, and if you have trees and no towers, by all means use t

Hi Brent, A few additions to what Tom said, that may help clarify the situation: In a two wire, selectable direction Beverage, differential mode or transmission line mode is only used to send the sig

Hi all, Sounds like you're on the right track to determine the possible effect of adding series capacitors on the relative phase and amplitudes of the currents in a four square array. The feed point

I think we can all agree that signals that pollute a wide bandwidth are unwelcome. It is still possible for a signal to have some "character" without being a nuisance. A bit of chirp, warble or slig

Peter is right about this, and if we do a little bit of pondering about how much RF those law breakers might actually be generating, we'll find that they are not likely to have even 10 dB higher sig

JAs are allowed to transmit down around 1820 kHz now. (what is the exact allocation there?) I have not had much luck listening for JAs in the 1910 kHz area since they got the new allocation. I miss t

Hi Mike, Yes the sloper does give you something to compare to, and you can call it an A-B comparison. It is important to remember that the A of the sloper and the B of the tower is not the same as e

Is there anyway to cut or eliminate all the static on an inv-L? Hi all, Rain, snow or even wind can cause a static build-up on any non-grounded conductor in the air. If that conductor is your antenna

With many T/R switching arrangements amplifier choke to ground is only connected to antenna during transmit, and only on the antenna that is used for transmit. Static noise is only bothersome during

Hi Art, I understand that the reason you want the downlead short is to prevent that small vertical section from acting as a vertical antenna with an omni-directional pattern. Of course you would lik

Interaction with the tower and beam may be changing the real SWR, or your instrument may be getting more RF from a near by MWBC station and giving you bad readings when the tower is connected. You ma
