[TowerTalk] RE: Whistling trap holes

[henrypol2@juno.com]

Couldn't resist this one!.....

Here's a case where the use of 9913 could be superior to any of those
solid dielectric coax's.  Since 9913 is hollow, why not just pump air
through it and out through the antenna elements to generate whistling
noises on windless days.

Or, how about this idea for a rotating system.  Use the pressurized air
in the 9913 to turn the antenna (think about the release of air from a
balloon and the forces).  Admittedly you will need a very low friction
bearing.  Oh well, something to think about when the band dies out late
at night.

Would anyone like to speculate why Force 12 has that bird in their C3/4
ads.  Why was it attracked to the antenna; there are no traps?

OK, that's enough.  Time to get serious.  I think I'll go check out the
latest on LB's web page.
