I watched this and some of his other vidios a week or so back.

I have learned more from him than I got from any other books I have read..
Seems that all the other books were wrong. I had a First Class Phone
license almost 40 years ago and an Associate degree in Electronics
Engineering.

I need to ge back to school and see what has changed. Maybe he is using the
new math to calculate the SWR.
Must be government matn.

SWR rule: If you don't worry about it, it doesn't matter. So don't
measure it and you won't worry about it.

What were the references to "the three-field" and "the five field" or maybe
"the far field"? Did anybody make that out? (Started around the 1:45 mark.)

He does say "a lot of CB'ers" once, which identifies him, I think.

I remember it as 3 pills and 5 pills, but I listened to it yesterday and
he, well he just wasn't.

Maybe pills are tubes?

Nope. A "pill" is a ceramic case RF power transistor that looks like
a large pill.

Full disclosu I got my start in radio in about 1965 with an EICO
model something CB radio. Ham radio was available, but I was too lazy
to study for the license. CB was also cheaper and easier. Many years
later, I worked for several companies that manufactured or sold CB
radios in addition to their commercial radio products. I also
designed a CB paging system (that was never produced). When I owned
part of a land mobile radio shop, we also sold and serviced CB radios.
It's really difficult to work in commercial radio, and also avoid CB.
I don't see how you've made it this far, and missed all the CB
history.

While much of the CB lingo is fairly new and amazingly creative, some
of it is based on ham radio lingo, which is not so new or as creative.
Somehow, I think we missed a splendid opportunity to add our mark on
technical slang.
