I have three 234's that went with my three Omni VI+'s. All of them worked well before the Orion arrived. Anyone interested? 73 Pete Allen AC5E _______________________________________________ TenTec m

You may well not have done anything wrong. In coming up on a year with the Orion, there have been a couple of occasions when it appeared a flash memory or memory register was full of garbage. The sym

Hi Chris: I'm sure you will get all sorts of suggestions for this or that "wonderwire" or "wonder beam" but the fact is that on 75/80 only a gain (directional) antenna will outperform a simple dipole

Hmm, interesting hypothesis. I have not had my Orion lockup for at least several months - using Log-EQF, 3-4 hours a day, usually with the sweep on and set to 15 kHz. EQF did have some timeout proble

Chuckle - even back in prehistoric times we knew the only way to broadband a dipole is to make it lossy. However the reduction in field strength, while greater than a typical trap or loading inductor

Well, I should have said the only way to broadband a single thin wire dipole is to make it lossy. A "fat" dipole, whether it's a cage, "double pennant," folded, the original "fan," or some other vari

NOOOO, Bob, not quite. A low dipole is essentially an omnidirectional antenna, typically with extremely good efficency. A large loop is directional, "beaming" more of its applied energy in two direct

Mark, the 705 will work with voltage supplied through the mike plug on the front of your Ten-Tec radio. It's only needed if you use a 705 on a non - Ten Tec radio. So first take the battery out. Make

Rick, your observations generally agree with mine on NVIS antennas of any sort; whether dipole, inverted V, or loop, over very reflective ground. The experiment I observed used roughly 100,000 square

So true. Any TX power gain in one direction is offset by an equal loss in some other direction. 100 watts in gets you 100 watts less resistance losses out. As Billy Whitehead found when he built an a
