ROFLOL I've yet to advance any claims for an astounding new concept in the field of antennas, "John". I'm always interested in the theoretical. Most of my knowledge of antennas is in the practical. I don't feel as if you are one who could teach me anything I don't already know on the subject. My exposure to you here and elsewhere reveals you to be an anonymous fellow who boasts of 5KW amplifiers and of using high power on the Citizens Band. You claim to be a teacher of some sort, but your English skills are at the high school level and your knowledge of punctuation is minimal. Dave K8MN |

Many cannot see past the end of their noses, yet they insist upon laying down the law regarding what is acceptable science and what is not. As though anyone actually knows anything at all. snip Let's not forget that one's educational level has nothing to do with native IQ. Ed, NM2K You are correct to say that education has nothing to do with IQ. Faraday had little formal training, yet his arduous work is now exalted by naming one of the basic electromagnetic laws after him. But I take issue with the idea that you can't actually know anything at all. For instance, electrodynamic theory was developed 150 years ago, and the KNOWN successful results of that are numerous. Newtonian mechanics held up well for hundreds of years. A whole industrial revolution was built on it. Yet some pesky observations by Michelson and Morley regarding the invariant speed of light found it wanting. Relativistic mechanics subsumed Newtonian mechanics, but Einstein didn't invalidate Newton. I believe the mathematical term "embedding" applies. I am currently re-studying the original theory of Maxwell, et. al., with the intent of finding some chink in the armor. Tesla reported longitudinal electromagnetic wave phenomena, which contradicts the now- standard theory that EM waves can ONLY be transversal. Using Maxwell's original quaternion equations, before Heviside simplified them into the now-standard vector form, one can derive longitudinal wave components. If those exist, does that prove you don't know how to operate a ham radio? No, it just means you're radiating something in addition to what you expect. You CAN know something and apply it. You just need to realize that what you know isn't complete, and never can be. ----------- I do not disagree with a thing that you have said. Ed Cregger |

I read a tale once that a man hid from facts by hiding in a garbage can where he suddenly realised he was closed off from all the worries of the world. Where the temperature was warm and food tho spoiled was available for the picking. Ofcourse there was the smell but what did it really matter as nobody else was around that could smell and thus insult him. In this group there is evidence that some of its members have emerged from their former places of confort and thus show that even in speech does the former odour prevail. Humans must get away from this syndrome of resistance to change and regain its inherrant inquisitiveness. Very best regards to all Art Unwin....KB9MZ...XG(uk) |

Let the wrench place itself *between the grinding teeth of gears then all progress comes to a halt Art- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - I proved myself as a true ham today. I had this new antenna on hand but the temperature was zero F degrees. Undaunted I went outside and disassembled my presenst antenna and took it off the tower and then replaced it with my replacement extra portable 160M antenna. By the time I finished at noon the temperature has reached a balmy 12 degrees F. Warmed myself up and the put the MFJ259 on the line in the shack. The resistance did not go below 20 ohms and climbed to 100 ohms at one end of the band.Swr on the meter showed a max of 3:1 across the whole band. I will have to wait a day or so to check it again to see if a matching effort is required when using the tube output of the amp which is tunable ofcourse. Now to the wifes honey doos for the rest of the day.Again, facts are stranger than fiction when using an antenna that is a tight squash into a lawyers briefcase which is larger than the norm. That defies the long held housewives tail that size is everything even tho aperture is proportional to gain, all ofcourse based on a yagi design which all hams are sure cannot be beaten by a smaller antenna array.Where are the censors of the day? By the way when the WHOLE radiator is 70foot or so away from ground the decrease in noise is tremendous. Regards to all Art Unwin KB9MZ....XG(uk) |

You tacked your license to the wall above your MFJ259? BTW, any directional gain means little if only a small amount of the applied RF is radiated by the small inefficient antenna. With such a small antenna, "gain" is the last thing you should be worried about. My MW receiving loops have a great f/s ratio. That does not mean I would want to use them as transmitting antennas.. :/ Git my drift Vern? MK |

MK This antenna of mine has really got you in a headlock.Your breathing is close to being cut off and there is no blood flowing to your brain such that you are so angry and can't think straight. What on earth does this antenna mean to a red neck who brags of avoiding schooling? Is it regret of some sort? It is not a secret antenna! Sooner or later you will have the opportunity to make one yourself. Probably in time for the peak of the next sunspot cycle. But then, what use will you make of it other than talk? On the other hand I don't remember anytime referring to your antennas either for transmitting or receiving other than hearing you say, in effect, that they cam beat anything on the planet. Having never met a redneck from the mountains I can only assume that such talk is the very nature of a redneck that makes them a subject for comedy. For that you do a terrific job with respect to american humour. |
