Yeah... I moved the page, and for some reason the old URL came flowing
out of my fingers... try http://www.qsl.net/ai8w/TruckPics/ 73 de AI8W, Chris Nitespark wrote: I am sure RS sells them. I was just looking for one at a flea market, or hamfest or something for a few bucks. I am not in desperate need of one just looking to try it out for comparison purposes. Tried the link below and it does not work. sideband wrote: Try Radio Shack for the 102" whip.. they still sell em Oh, and for kicks, you might want to chuckle at my insanity while looking at a similar setup at http://www.csotbs.org/ai8w/TruckPics I sold that truck, and haven't had a chance to reconstruct that system on the new truck yet, but it's coming. 73 de AI8W, Chris Nitespark wrote: Bob Cook wrote: Re 20 meter hamstick and AH-4: Do you mean you are using an AH-4 to tune the 20 m hamstick to other bands? If so, to which bands and what kind of SWR's? Bob K9KKY I have used it on 40 meters successfully and on 15 and 10. The SWR is perfect. The efficiency of the system is not so good. I can do the same thing with my Webster BandSpanner. My biggest problem is being mobile when there is a band opening. Havn't found that many on 15 & 10 recently....at least when I have been in the car. With the AH-4, it really doesn't matter what I put back on the antenna mount. It will find he L/C combination and match it to the radio (within reason of course...obviously can't use a 1/4 wave UHF spike on 40 meters). I have been looking around for a 102" CB whip. That would work as well as anything. |
