1. Topband: How Would You Load This Tower? (score: 1): Author: "Jim Brown" <jim@audiosystemsgroup.com>; Date: Sat, 03 Apr 2004 22:04:55 -0600; Here's a brain teaser that I would appreciate some help thinking about. The tower in the photo (the big one with the dishes on it) is about 150 ft tall. 32 ft square at the base, roughly 24 ft square; /archives//html/Topband/2004-04/msg00023.html (8,262 bytes)

[TowerTalk] Re: W4AN Silent Key (score: 1): Author: "Jim Brown" <jim@audiosystemsgroup.com>; Date: Mon, 05 Apr 2004 11:53:02 -0600; Because I was inactive on HF for most of the last 18 years, I didn't get to know Bill, and worked him only a few times since my return in a contests.

I also have a GR-1606 in the closet, but the CIA and VIA fit in my briefcase. I like the CIA, but am; /archives//html/Topband/2004-04/msg00060.html (7,635 bytes)

(score: 1): Author: "Jim Brown" <jim@audiosystemsgroup.com>; Date: Tue, 13 Apr 2004 09:13:13 -0500; VERY important distinction -- what do you mean by "in phase" and "out of phase?" Phase is a continuous function having an infinite number of values, and is proportional to frequency. Any network that; /archives//html/Topband/2004-04/msg00066.html (9,016 bytes)

(score: 1): Author: "Jim Brown" <jim@audiosystemsgroup.com>; Date: Tue, 13 Apr 2004 11:50:42 -0500; What I'm trying to get at are the differences between the VIA and the VIA Bravo in technical terms. And what are the differences between the VIA and the CIA besides speed? Price is an obvious differe; /archives//html/Topband/2004-04/msg00068.html (7,772 bytes)
6. Topband: Polarity and Phase (score: 1): Author: "Jim Brown" <jim@audiosystemsgroup.com>; Date: Wed, 14 Apr 2004 09:13:32 -0500; You are absolutely incorrect! First, you don't understand (or are unwilling to admit) that phase and polarity are different. When you reverse the wires that connect elements of a system (e.g., a rec; /archives//html/Topband/2004-04/msg00083.html (12,352 bytes)

Use a broadband signal (or try to get broadband performance from an antenna system) and you will see significant differen; /archives//html/Topband/2004-04/msg00084.html (10,278 bytes)

Phase is only defined for sine waves of the same frequency! Yo; /archives//html/Topband/2004-04/msg00087.html (9,322 bytes)
9. Re: Topband: Polarity and Phase (score: 1): Author: "Jim Brown" <jim@audiosystemsgroup.com>; Date: Wed, 14 Apr 2004 20:52:26 -0500; No problem. When you have time to think about it, I'll try to help you get your head around it. This is stuff that we in the pro audio world have had to spend a lot of effort understanding thoroughly; /archives//html/Topband/2004-04/msg00091.html (11,718 bytes)

And my point is that the phase shift achieved in that line is DIFFERENT from changing the polarity.

12. Re: Topband: Polarity and Phase (score: 1): Author: "Jim Brown" <jim@audiosystemsgroup.com>; Date: Thu, 15 Apr 2004 10:51:03 -0500; No, I'm not. We're trying to separate a signal from noise. Our signal may be narrowband (CW), but the noise is not. We can, of course, help ourselves by reducing the bandwidth with narrow filters, bu; /archives//html/Topband/2004-04/msg00103.html (9,018 bytes)

I think your example (an excellent one) helps illustrate how time, frequency, and phase are so tightly related that it is hard for us to get our brains around the relationships between them.

On Field Day, CW and phone are considered separate bands, and another station can we worked once per band. So hitting 160 for a co; /archives//html/Topband/2004-04/msg00158.html (7,851 bytes)

But the frequency-variable noise is clearly coming from some un-intentional radiators. At least on; /archives//html/Topband/2004-04/msg00213.html (8,211 bytes)
