No information you say? It is just that you can't handle it so you

Yes, you did get information but you have not the grounding to

You don't have the grounding to understand what you write.
If you do, you totally ignore it.
You were a mechanical engineer working at G.E. Your status
as an expert in RF theory are in question. Heck, you can't even
correctly spell half the terms you mention.
Like the above jibber jabber.. How in the heck are you going to
get **ANY** vertical radiator to have a truly isotropic pattern?
It's impossible. An isotropic pattern is a theoretical pattern
in which radiation is equal in all directions. Such a pattern
does not exist with real antennas. But, yea, you are truly
one "grounded" individual.. :/ Chortle...
It would be pathetic if the dog and pony show were not

Corriolis force as thread title.. Chortle.. You claim to be
an expert at this phenomenon, yet you can't even spell
the word correctly. :/
And I imagine that there are still many readers world wide
who are still wondering what constitutes "equilibrium" in
an antenna system.



No. I am just exposing the so called self perceived experts on this

heads have no idea of the silent readers

And visa versa I have no doubt whatsoever..
I actually believe you have more cult followers

Might as well just "sticky" a permanent thread

The unseen readers are laughing at your ignorance. And mine. And
almost everyone else's on this list. Because we don't know kaka despite

Yep, he's a hoot. Doesn't understand a whit about what he says, but boy
can he say it.

I hope someone is keeping a record of what he's saying so that it can be
analyzed and turned into a babblegaff generator.

A real isotropic radiator may not exist, but one can get fairly close.
If you believe the model, the total error is 0.44 db. See:
http://802.11junk.com/jeffl/antennas/isotropic/index.html
The NEC2 deck is under the photo labeled "main".

I once built one of these antennas on roughly 444MHz out of cardboard
and magnet wire. The oscillator was a small crystal can oscillator
running from a 9V battery to avoid having the feed coax wrecking the
pattern. The impedance was nowhere near 50 ohms and required a bit of
matching to get the VSWR down. I'm now digging for the photos.

I used a piece of string to maintain a constant radius, a tiny pickup
loop at the end of a length of coax cable running inline with the
string, and eventually going to my antique HP spectrum analyzer. On
the 2dB/div scale, it was a fairly good approximation of an isotropic
radiator with errors mostly caused by indoor reflections and
interference with the bench.

Thanks, but the design is not mine. I think it came with a 4NEC2
samples collection, MiniNEC, or possibly with one of the other antenna
modeling packages. I've got them all muddled together so I can't
easily determine the source. I don't think I made any changes to the
model. Mostly, all I did was package the results into something
presentable on a web page. (Note: I tried to convince Ari to add a
web page creation feature to 4NEC2, but failed).

Incidentally, I has some illusion of using the isotropic approximation
antenna as a gain reference antenna. I know there are other reference
antenna designs that are more suitable, but I thought it would be an
interesting exercise. I also built one for 2.4GHz, which was a total
failure.

Drivel: Isotropic antenna patents:

"Spherical antennas having isotropic radiation patterns"
http://www.google.com/patents?id=--I2AAAAEBAJ

"Isotropic antenna system and notebook computer"
http://www.google.com/patents/about?id=M2UOAAAAEBAJ
Using multiple antennas to get a reasonably hemispherical pattern on a
laptop.

"Omnidirectional isotropic antenna"
http://www.google.com/patents?id=VQcYAAAAEBAJ
Uses a microwave lens fed by wavguide. Pattern is roughly
hemispherical.

"Near-isotropic low-profile microstrip radiator especially suited for
use as mobile vehicle antenna"
http://www.google.com/patents?id=wNE5AAAAEBAJ

"Near isotropic circularly polarized antenna"
http://www.google.com/patents?id=saMgAAAAEBAJ

etc.... plenty more found with a search for "isotropic antenna". Of
course, isotropic antennas don't really exist. Therefore all the
patents must be science fiction.

Incidentally, I'm still scratching my rapidly depilating head about
your answers to my question about antenna resonance. However, I wanna
do some more reading before demonstrating my ignorance on the subject
and making a fool of myself. Real-soon-now.

You cannot assume that one who makes an accusation has the status of
education to match his veracity. The person who stated that it is an
impossibility does not even posses a high school diploma. Climbing on
the back of his statements puts you back on the stage again!

I replied to the assertion that my homeland was guilty of embarassment
or shame.

What sort of man is one who does not stand up on behalf of his
homeland where presently their soldiers are standing and dying along
side ours of the U.S.
I am attacked personally daily, but to attack the U.K and the
Commonwealth for declaring war on the German menace, a consequence of
which many gave their lives, is a totally different situation to me.
Hopefully you can understand that and thus allow the matter to drop
without loss of stature

Does not matter what education I started out with. They don't
teach antenna theory until college level anyway.
Being as you didn't take those courses in college either,
being a mechanical engineer, I don't see how you have any
real leg up on me at all as far as antenna theory.
You had to learn it on your own, same as I did.
You probably had a decent leg up in math at one time,
but you seem so senile now, I doubt it does you any good. :/
You don't seem to exercise the skill.. You hardly ever give out
any math to support any of your theories.

All of my antenna education has been self administered, and for all
you know, I might have eclipsed you years ago. You have no way of
really knowing unless someone gave us a test.
Heck, you went to college, and I was expelled from high school,
but as I general rule, I spell better than you do.
Not perfect, but I bet my rate of error is a good bit lower than
yours.

How do you explain that? And if that is the case, how can we be
sure that your lofty college education in mechanical engineering is
actually helping you to rise above that nasty ole dumbass NM5K
when it comes to antenna talk?

There are many here that know much more than I do, but as
far as I can tell, you ain't one of them. :/
You can telling a fetching yarn to reel em in, but when it comes to
producing the real goods, you vanish every time after a mind numbing
barrage of pure baffle gab.

Most of my antenna work is with real antennas in the real world.
I don't spend much time letting modeling programs run wild, and
then proclaim that the resulting designs they spit out require new
baffle gab theory to explain their operation.

So it's not really required that I be some rocket scientist here.
I'm not the one having to defend baffle gab.

But you on the other hand propose that you are going to rewrite the
books with your new theories.
And that most everyone here, except you of course, is a dribbling
idiot
not to swallow everything you say, hook, equilibrium, and weak force.
Being that is the case, I'd be a lot more worried about your education
than mine if I were you.
You are the one that needs to prove your case, not I.
