I'm surprised Force 12 doesn't recommend you just replace their antenna with a dummy load. BW will be improved still further and cost will be kept to a minimum, although gain and F/B might suffer a t

I'm in the process of working up a little home brew trap design antenna that uses coaxial traps wound around PVC (white) coil forms. Can anyone suggest a glue I could use that would hold the windings

Mike, You don't state which manufacturer's hardware you have or what yagi design they are (or if they're yagis for that matter). Assuming they have some sort of adjustable matching network on each, s

Dunno about that, Jim... An awful lot of hams have prostate cancer. It's amazing to me how often I run into a ham on a cancer support list. Either we hams are far more likely to be active on the boar

Hi Don, Since I'm the one who first used the "P" word, let me be one of several who say "thank you" for the informative posting. While as you say it's far afield from tower info, IMHO it is not unwel

Carl, I think it's fair to say that there are many beliefs surrounding prostate cancer, many of which lack complete science to conclude truth, but also many of which have at least some science to len
