My dad has told me about "White's". However, my "bible" is the "World Radio and TV Handbook". It has MUCH more info than you're asking for here, but I find it extremely helpful with my SWL and MW DXi
Hello all, Since I've said in the past that I would not announce most changes to my qsl.net WWW page, I am only now announcing a change because I have done extensive work on some of my subpages and a
Hello Mike and the List, Oh dear. The four-pin connector is on the back of my Yaesu FT-757. I recently made a power cord for it for mobile work, but would like to redo it with a new connector. Perhap

Hello Steve, Would you take info from someone who has made solar energy a hobby? I'd first direct you to my personal web page (qsl.net) listed in my sig file below where you will also find a photo of
--snip-- Steve, What is your opinion of a Colorado Blue Spruce? (Mine is about 30 ft. high.) Is there a way to install beams without ruining the value/appearence of the tree (thinking down the road
Mike and others, Very good point Mike. You're probably right. Thanks to others who responded also! Probably shouldn't try this, but thought I'd ask anyway. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. (BTW, sev
Wayne, Depends on exactly what you're looking for and the price. I recently purchased the MFJ-259 from Gerald at Texas Towers. For my purposes it works just fine. I'm told that its warts include weak
Hello, Following on with what John said... A few months ago I went to purchase cold galv from Home Depot. The ONLY brand they have is Rustoleum. Anyone have any opinions on that brand? 73, Mary-Franc

With all due respect I would NEVER deal with J.C. Witney. Sure they have a LOT of neat stuff, stuff that I imagine might be difficult to find. However, based on several interactions I've had with the
Hello, I have to give a small chuckle over some of the t.n. discussion and aiming beams. Believe me, I think they are very important and I was very picky when I put up my solar panels to make sure th
Neat setup. Looks VAGUELY familiar. Before I put up the solar panels I charged four golf cart batteries with a Todd 30 amp charger (ran only a 12V 10 cu-ft freezer off them at the time). I now use it
