not It takes about 500 J to melt a gram of brass from room temperature. I think 256 would be enough to seriously damage a band switch. The unresolved problem isn't the available energy, it's how it

Good news, Carl. The unresolved problem has already been solved by the modest Mr. Rauch. The energy gets to the switch because C-tune has a VHF resonance slightly above the parasitic freq.. For exam

Let's do the math: A Joule is 1 Watt-second. Multiply watts times seconds. If I am transmitting at 1500 Watts for 10 seconds, the total energy passing through the switch is 15,000 joules. So if I can

through (or Passing 1500 watts through closed terminals of the band switch doesn't dissipate 1500 watts in the switch or it would shortly be toast. We hope the 1500 watts makes it to the antenna. Ac

Jon, In your example below I think you are confusing transmission of energy with conversion of energy. In the case of a properly operating amplifier which is generating 1500 watts of output power, th

OK. You're correct. Understand now what you are saying. Certainly you are correct when it comes to how much power one could actually dissipate in the switch. No doubt about that! Thanks for clearing

You are correct. Carl straightened me out. The words "to" and "through" mean very different things even though the power has to go "to" the bandswitch before it goes "to" the load. Agreed. And switch

An arc is energy applied to a POINT target, in this case the thin contacts of a bandswitch in the presence of oxygen. We aren't talking about melting down metal ingots here. -- FAQ on WWW: http://www

Jon, I THINK we may be getting a little off the path here. First, 1500 watts through something isn't the same as 1500 watts TO something. You could run 1500 watts of power through a 1 foot length of
