"Mike Tomlinson" wrote in message
... Tomlinson's one-sided vendetta continues unabated. For somone who maintains that my complaint against him was trivial and was dismissed as trivial, Tomlinson comes across as more and more unhinged by my reacting to his threat to report me to a 3rd party by doing the same to him. Never been married? Says it all, really. Because it is so one sided, Tomlinson conveniently fails to mention that Fuller was reprimanded for his behaviour. Tomlinson also conveniently fails to mention that no charges were laid against me, and the arrest was occasioned by a malicious complaint from another gratuitously abusive poster to Usenet, BRIAN REAY, who had reported many people to the police MERELY FOR DISAGREEING WITH HIM ON USENET. One has to ask why did Reay wind up the plodderies to such an extent that 8 plods were sent to arrest me, when I had never been arrested ever before, and, being a pacifist, have no history of violence? Tomlinson is also habitually reckless as to the truth of what he asserts in his infantile headlong rush to want to score points by being abusive, for resisting arrest is a criminal offence but no such charge was made. En el artículo , Roger Hayter escribió: "punishment squad", what a strange term! I don't remember the government setting up such a scheme; is it perhaps a term that criminal vigilantes use among themselves to justify their depraved and lawless behaviour? The term was used to refer to the number of police officers sent to arrest Gareth Alun Evans at his home on a charge of harassment. The arrest was also videoed because Evans has a long history of making frivolous complaints to the IPCC. --- quote --- "The court heard how Mr Evans had made 59 complaints to the Independent Police Complaints Commission about Wiltshire Constabulary." "His eyes were wide open and he portrayed to me a person looking to injure somebody," said Sgt Fuller. "It was a violent attitude towards the officers there to arrest him. It was a shock and I couldn't understand why he had gone berserk." Sgt Fuller said there was a struggle between PC Hunt and Mr Evans, who had then swung round and knocked WPC Sarah Pullman sideways. --- end quote --- so not only did Evans resist arrest, he also assaulted a female officer. "berserk" is a pretty good definition of his behaviour on usenet.

I wonder where you heard it? It seems it certain parts of the wider realm, they exist and act to punish those who have acted in a way they don't like. Like your blackballing of people against whom you operate a childish vendetta from the otherwise claimed-open-to-all RSGBTech Yahoo group, do you mean? |

... The solution is going to have to be no solution, and that is, in moving the co-linear from the top of the 14MHz vertical, is to move it with the current PL259 / SO239 connection intact and dig up the feeder cable where it had been cemented over by the gardener's (SWMBO !!!!) creation of stone steps to the door of her greenhouse Unthreaded the cable OK, but where it fed up through the hole in my wooden shed workshop, I had put the cable in BEFORE attaching the PL259, and it jammed in the hole when pulling it back through, requiring a round trip of an hour to clear the junk from that corner of the workshop and replace it afterwards. There's always one, and the air was blue, and not from there being no clouds in the sky! |

... Using a pipe cutter and the plug as a guide, cut the surplus braid away. To give credit where it is due, the use of a pipe cutter is a good idea. It sure beats the gingerly use of a junior hacksaw! |

It's even worth it to tin the holes on the PL-259 and let it cool before you start. Oh, and don't forget to install the sleeve first!! Mikek |

Actually, there is a minor problem with the pipe cutter, and that is that it only cuts square if both of the back rollers are sitting on the material being cut, and the insulation, where the insulation has not been cut back, sets the pipe cutter askew. |

It's even worth it to tin the holes on the PL-259 and let it cool before you start. Oh, and don't forget to install the sleeve first!! Mikek I keep a small pipe cutter specially for the job. It is a small C type one, rather than the larger G clamp type. A utility (we would say Stanley) knife is a bit dangerous in my view, if it slips, used for this task. Ok for the sheath and inner insulation of course. Another trick is to cut slowly, so as to preserve the edge on the cutting wheels. Several gentle cuts, rather than trying to cut too quickly. As a guide, if you mark the inner, go easier next time. That is my rule of thumb. If you think about it, the braid, even when soldered, is probably no harder than a copper pipe as lead is softer than copper and the braid isn't solid. There is the tin, of course, but that is why I suggest several cuts. I've used the technique for decades and I'm pretty sure I've not replaced the pipe cutter. It has been used by myself and countless licence students (fitting a plug is required for one of the licence assessments here). I can't claim to have invented the technique. I'm not sure but I think I first saw an American amateur use it in the early 80s. |

... What's the solution to soldering through to the underlying braid in a PL259 if the only soldering iron small enough to engage the holes is a low-power jobbie? Perchance the solution lies in using a junior hacksaw to make a slot between two of the holes so the big iron can get in there? This is for an outdoors connection, so I want to ensure that it is sound. Some say that I should google before posing a question on Usenet, but it is my intention to promote discussion in what otherwise tends to be a dying medium, especially in uk.radio.amateur where the untechnical abusive lunatics are taking over the asylum. This, now, may be of interest (and also his Part 2 covering RG58) ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_jlPcBVg45E |
