reams of your puerile **** flushed where it belongs

Most of what you have been posting here
recently seems to be opinion rather than fact.

Best get your seems machinery seen to then.

Its a fact that even when a receiving antenna does radiate back
half of what it recieves, THAT IS NOT RELEVANT TO WHAT WAS
BEING DISCUSSED, THE LEGISLATED EIRP LEVEL ALLOWED.

Not a shred of opinion involved what so ever.


Look at this part of the thread...

[John said:]
If the receiver matching is for optimal noise figure, there may be
some reflection and reradiation, but there's nothing pinning it to
be half the received power.

[Roy said:]
John is correct.

[Rod said:]
Nope.

[Roy said:]
A receiving antenna, when matched, reradiates half the power it
receives.

[Rod said:]
Yes but that ISNT ANY REAL POWER in the EIRP restriction sense.

So John made a factual statment. Roy agreed. Your opinion was to
disagree with the simple factual statment.

Roy added a clarifying statment. You started to go off the hook and
SHOUT because you were fixated on EIRP. When I read it I never saw any
direct implication about EIRP or legalities in the explanation; it was a
simple explanation about antennas.

Your *opinion* was involved in deciding you knew the exact intent of the
posting and that it had implications in the EIRP thing, just because
that is the interpretation that passed through your mind.

Ok, I'm done here. Not sure why I took the time for this one last post.
