221. Re: Topband: Quick question on radials (score: 1)

Based on an excellent piece by N6LF in the ARRL Antenna Book, this is your best option with the length of wire you have. If you have more wire, add more radials, again at that length. If you have a L

ON4UN is a smart guy, and I'm sure that his recommendations are solid, but he's buying European products that are hard to find in the US. I doubt very seriously that there are any ferrite products we

Thanks John. The company is new to me. The website lists them at $1 each for 16 pieces, $1.50 each for 4 pieces. These, however, are cores for Beverage transformers. The question I was responding to

That is the "old" way. Bill Whitlock published an AES paper (JAES Jun 1995) that convinced everyone who read it that the proper shield connection for a "one end only" bond is at the SENDING end, not

The pro audio community (which includes people with excellent RF background) has moved well beyond the somewhat limited views of susceptibility cited in your reply. Anyone concerned with these issues

Two suggestions. First, I hear that there are commercial filters that fix this pretty good on 160. Second, you might try a multi-turn ferrite choke designed for 160M, following the guidelines (and me

YES. Beverages work on the principle that the ground under them is lossy. Add radials and it becomes less lossy, so the Beverage degrades. 73, Jim K9YC _______________________________________________

George, Let me expand on my earlier comment. The purpose of radials is to reduce losses in the earth under a vertical. It matters less what directions those radials run than the quantity of them and

Like most (all?) analyzers at this price level, the MFJ has problems in the presence of strong RF. Go to http://www.fcc.gov/mb/audio/amq.html and enter the lat/lon coordinates and a distance of 20 mi

Careful! First, the impedance of a series resonant circuit isn't "zero" at resonance, it's some "low resistance." Second, it's only "low resistance" that frequency. At the frequency where you're meas

It is a Netgear problem. Lots of hams have wireless hubs with no RFI from their transmitters. It is the WIRED connections to the router (including possibly the power supply) and/or its poor shielding

Several comments. 1) #43 is NOT a good choice for suppressing RFI below 40 Meters. It is VERY effective at 40M and above. For RFI on 80M, 160M, and the AM broadcsat band, you need #31. If your proble
