"...what difference does it make what color it has as to the heat it will dissipate?" A big difference, if you don't use forced air flow. Black bodies radiate and absorb heat many times more efficiently than a white or shiny body. Example, a silvered-glass 'thermos' bottle. Try wearing a nice black tee shirt in the direct sun as compared to a white one. 73, Roy K6XK _______________________________________________ Amps mailing list Amps@contesting.com http://lists.contesting.com/mailman/listinfo/amps |
