It will work in the Horiz mode but be highly directive...you would be better off with the DAR OmniAngle antenna or something similar.. BUT cant hurt to try if you have one and its free :) (But drilli
Magnecor wires?? YES!!! I have talked to several hams who have used them and had excellent results....Also make sure all parts of the body are well bonded.....and always use resistor style plugs....
If memory serves, the T-175 is a great little amp for six meters.. I have never heard anything bad about them...they of course were sold as a compliment to the T-150 xmtr....I THINK it uses 811s (cor
Ron posted the correct info....it was designed as an amp for the low power AM rigs (the 106 and 108...I really need more coffee ;) but then it has been years since I saw a 175.... And yes it does use
Jacob, if you can get ahold of the current issue of QEX, there is an excellent article in there on turnstiles...which you would find much better use for general BS etc on six....no rotor, 360degree h
DONT!! grind off the zinc galvanizing....use paint thinner or stripper. that wont harm the zinc but will remove the paint after a day or so.. just brush it on, let it soak in, rinse or wipe off....re
Contact Riley Hollinsworth at the FCC... Riley@FCC.gov is his email address... THE FCC (and RILEY!) is getting tough on utilities and their noisy lines....(I used to be a RFI/TVI troubleshooter for o
Use a triplexer.......Comet and Diamond make them.....allows you to use the feedline on all three bands at the same time! Why switch when you lose the other 2 bands at the time??? Since the UHF side
Typical loss in a triplexer is less than 0.5 db through.... I have used them for years with no problem... I have also used them in VHF/UHF weak signal as well as microwave usage....The ones you used
John, Gain is derived from the simplest of antennas...the dipole or if you want to take the professional route, an imaginary antenna called the isotropic antenna which radiates likes a soccer ball...
EXCELLENT analogy....best way to show omni gain :) Good show! Think about this analogy. Place a round balloon on a flat surface, put another flat surface on top of the balloon and apply pressure. The
IRLP ONLY provides a wireline link between RF systems...ECHOlink and others DO NOT as they allow PCs to talk directly between each other and on to the air...(which I have serious problems with...rega
