Ther is no reason that you can't be a P.E. if you are worthy of it
Since you entered this side of the pond in Canada and if you had
completed your studies in the U.K. then it is recognised and you are
qualified to become a P.E.
If you don't do your studies in the U.K. or some other Countries then
you may well have had to take the Canadian exam in a similar way in
the individual States do in the U.S. And why not since even those born
here have to pass the test.
Apply at your home state to take the examination if you feel you
are worthy of it because of your previous studies and knoweledge.
If you haven't walked the walk then you cannot possibly do the talk,
at least not with any credability. Knocking those who have done the'
walk'
such as Tom who is a well known expert in the field of Antennas, by
talking of a project that you 'may' do someday to prove your own worth
really doesn't cut it. Usually when a person resorts to personal
attacks it signifies
an expiration of further knoweledge just the same way when a person
resorts
to vulgar language when he has a stinted vocabulary.
Where do you fit in Yuri....? An antenna expert?

Have a nice Xmas

In Europe engineers get to use the title Ing. or Dipl.Ing. to indicate that
they completed studies and are working on improving the tools for mankind. In
Canada they use P.Eng., here in Hamerica they are the best kept secret,
underpaid, overworked, oversued. Just look at Nikola Tesla or ask any student.
Who? What?

Hi Art,

This is rec.radio.AMATEUR.antenna

When the discussion descends to propping up professional shingles like
phD or PE then it should be redirected to
rec.radio.ego.support

In this forum there are plenty enough who are content to act like a
phD or PE (or dress like one).

I do like that one Richard
I felt no different when I retired and became
a 'nothing'.Its amasing how some who read that
feel they have an oportunity to attack to polish
their own ego's and wannabee ambitions.
My latest antenna works just great even tho I have
not got the nod of approval from those who flaunt
the path to Q.E.D. or other erstwhile experts.
The bandwidth I have for top band is just about
perfect with a 7 khz bandwidth ( 2: 1 ratio) that
follows the radio's frequency. And some who can
'talk the talk' say I should throw the model away!!!
I have seen pictures of the beach where you are
going and it looks fabulous but I understand it
is the land of pickpockets as well as female
jigglers.
Have fun

Nikola Tesla was a productive genius, and as long as there are exams, we
will have prayer in our schools.

From "The Inventions, Researches, and Writings of Nikola Tesla" by
Thomas Commerford Martin, 1893, and from comments on the jacket:
"In the second year of his Gratz course, Mr. Tesla gave up the notion of
becoming a teacher, and took up the engineering curriculum. His studies
ended---. For a short time he served as an assistant in the Government
Telegraph Engineering Department---. He made a number of telephonic
inventions---. To gain a wider field of action, he pushed on to Paris
and there secured employment as an electrical engineer with one of the
large companies in the new industry of electrical lighting.

It was during this period, and as early as 1882 that he began serious
and continued efforts to embody the rotating field principle in
operative apparatus---.

At last he determined that it would be best to try his fortunes in
America. In France he had met many Americans, and in conntact with them
learned the desirability in turning every new idea in electricity to
practical use.

NIkola Tesla was born in Croatia in 1856. He emigrated to the United
States in 1884 and worked for a short while for Thomas Edison. A pioneer
in the field of high tension electricity, Tesla made many discoveries
and inventions of lasting value to the development of radio transmission
and electricity, one of the most famous of which was the power system at
Niagra Falls. He died in 1943.

Hi Art,

It's Buenos Aires, not Rio. In Rio, it is suggested you hire a
personal bodyguard to accompany you touring. Argentina is the safest
country in South America to travel. This is the city of the Tango,
not the girl from Ipenema.

I`ve worked in Argentina and visited Brasil`s Rio. I`ll take Rio. Buenos
Aires, which we called the city of darkness, if Paris is the "city of
light. Buenos Aires has provocative women where Paris has smart women.
The women in both cities are great! Argentina is the whitest country
south of Canada. They externinated their indigenous people while Brasil
imported slaves. These were emancipated in Brasil long before that
happened in the U.S.

Both B.A. and Paris have excellent food. The beef is better in B.A. If
the restaurant La Cabana survives, the beef is legendary. It is served
with a redundant sharp Bowie knife. It can easily be cut with your fork.
El Pulpo was famous for sea food. You may like McDonald`s freedom fries,
but B.A. has El Palacio de Las Papas Fritas. Never before seen such a
variety of ways to fix the fried potato. All good!

B.A. has a Texas Bar. as do many sea ports. It caters to sailors. For
seamy action it`s a sight to behold. B.A. has great shopping along a
pedestrian street closed to vehicular traffic. It`s La Calle Florida.
Hope Argentina has got a grip on inflation. Prices used to rise by the
hour.

Summer begins in B.A. in a couple of weeks.
B. A. is hot and humid in summer and cold and damp in winter. The
climate is almost identical to Houston`s. I felt right at home there.
Have fun on your visit.

Hi Richard,

Thanks, I am taking note of all recommendations! (Except for the
catering to sailors - I had wilder times in the Bible Belt of
Charleston S.C. when I was in Nixon's Canoe Club).
