When I got the radio bug at about age 12 and had received my first 2m signals on a dipole and a super regen receiver, I learned from my school physics that water had a dielectric constant of about 80

All, Here's my take on this, particularly from a VHF contests point of view. We need good HV SMPS because; 1. Must be lighter, and hopefully smaller and more efficient than equivalent linear supplies

A simple way of looking at this problem is to consult an oracle and work out the combined third order intercept point (IP3) of the two (or more) stages. The equation for the ip3 of two cascaded stage

John, you shouldn't have told me that, you'll be up against bigger antennas on 6m next year as they seem to have 1/2" 18 SWG at a good price and are within reasonable distance from me to collect. 73

Two good points, but I think you could probably solve both of them by simply using two flow meters with judicious use of cardboard so that half the air goes through each one. John G3UUT _____________

Beware of trying to speed up coax relays by putting an initial over voltage on them. I tried this with a 26 V Radial relay, I put a DC voltage on the contacts and observed the result on a scope. It d

Another caution, this time about constant voltage transformers. I had one of these and tried to use it to stabilise the mains to a signal generator to improve drift. It sort of worked but the main pr

I've also been thinking about this problem and the reason I'm not keen on a DC regulator is that the distortion and peak current of the mains current waveform is already pretty bad with a capacitor i

Interesting idea using an opto-coupler but I think it would be too non-linear to give you a good RMS response especially on low heater voltages where the turn on threshold of the infrared LED is a si

Hi Peter, I had a feeling that the EU regs meant that any switching PSU over 100 W had to be power factor corrected. Does this also apply to non switching PSUs such as in tube amps, Ameritron, Alpha
