I had an HF tank silver plated and I found no operational difference between copper or silver. I will say that after years of operation in a heated environment, a silver plated tank looks physically better than and copper tank. My guess is that at UHF, silver plating will make a slightly measurable improvement in efficiency. 73, Ken W2DTC ------------------------------------ > Does anyone here have any before and after comparisons of silver > plating HF tank coils? _______________________________________________ Amps mailing list Amps@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/amps |
