In negotiations there is a difference between one's "interest" and one's "position," the former focussing in what you think the other really wants and the latter focussing on what he asks for--So, do
If you put diagonals across each corner the loop will be shortened by the hypotenuse of the triangle. You can do this at as many corners as you want. GL 73 Saul K2XA -- -- Original Message -- From: "

Also, all the talk about one antenna stomping on another is really silly when the differences for similar boom lengths are in tenths of dBs and the qth differences shown from HFTA can be as much as 2
Dave, I will send you my data as promised , but KK9A is correct about the point to point wiring. By the way, the Telrex rotator runs 110v to the tower for the rotator and the selsyn. I have a BA2345R
If you read the materials that come with the come-along you will see that the rating is for pulling dead weight; i.e. dragging 2 or 4 thousand pounds. The force on the come-along is the coefficient o

Many years ago I ran a Heath Warrior at 800w thru my 250 Matchbox and it never got warm, but when I looked inside, the plastic(?) coil form had melted around the coil wires . Check inside! GL 73 Saul
