. . . The export controls still exist, by the way, for NEC4.. when you get a copy, don't you have to certify who the end user is? and agree to ITAR compliance, etc. https://ipo.llnl.gov/technology/soft...uments/NEC.pdf Until a few years ago, NEC-4 could only purchased by a U.S. citizen for use within the U.S. Anyone else would have to apply for an exception via diplomatic channels. Now, there are no restrictions except for a very few prohibited countries (e.g., North Korea). Licenses are routinely granted for users all over the world. The program is, however, still protected by copyright. Roy Lewallen, W7EL |

"Roy Lewallen" wrote in message ine... Buried antennas were seriously investigated by the military some time ago, and are probably still in use. While terribly inefficient, some can radiate enough to be useful, and invisibility can be an asset. Agree. I didn't mean to imply that a buried antenna wouldn't work at all. Dirt's not a perfect shield material, which is what would be required for zero radiation. |

Just remember the general rule for antennas: small - efficient - broadband: pick any two. Roy Lewallen, W7EL Methinks you forgot inexpensive. Still pick any two. |

I built this years ago as a quick antenna for receiving and transmitting. It is name after Havana Cuba's Arnie Coro, since He came up with it over 20 years ago. ... Frankly, I have wondered about this. If I hooked an antenna up to my dummy load, how far could I transmit? What kind of kilowatt signals would be able to move my meter needle? Or, was that only a dream? grin Regards, JS |
