[TowerTalk] Bose 901 Antenna

[Larry Banks]

Just to make this "TowerTalk" compatible, consider the 901s a close-spaced, 
collinear acoustic radiator -- the frequencies are lower, but the math is 
the same.  And it depended on near-field environmental interference, rather 
than this being a detriment as it usually is with our RF radiators.

I still have my original 901s -- the biggest issue was placement, especially 
with my first wife.  I also have my original kit-built Dynaco Stereo 120, 
built to drive the 901s which it did well -- and the 901s really were a 
breakthrough design.  The equalizer was even SOLID-STATE!  (It wasn't THAT 
long ago...)  You should have seen the REALLY original 2201s -- the closest 
thing to an acoustic isotropic radiator ever built.

PS -- I am biased.  Dr. Bose was my Masters Thesis advisor in 1968...
