tnom,
Except to 'stir the pot' why would you want to drag
out this collection of out dated misconcepts? Mixing
a little bit of truth with a lot of old 'wive's tales'
is a sure way to spread confusion and mis-information.
In that respect you're doing a fine job...

Keep up with whats going on in this newsgroup. There has been an
antenna discussion for a week now.

Well, I guess I could of stayed with the standard material for
this group. The pedophilia stories, the name calling, the hobby
bashing negative dribble, But I chose different. I chose to
stay constructive and on topic.

I'm sorry you can't see that. The original message by me was to
point out that there are 5 foot antennas that will perform very good.



This was disputed, so I offered proof by posting the test.
I also offered a possible explanation of why a 102"SS
can be beat. You have the right to not believe that a 102
can't be beat but it is ridiculous for you to suggest that these
discussions are not what this group is suppose to be about.

There has been no name calling, no pede comments, no
gay comments, or anti CB rhetoric. What are you complaining
about?

You must of been so used to the former that you were caught off
guard when a real discussion came up. Remember that if everyone agrees
then there is no discussion.

I would suggest you take a look at exactly what
I said. Don't 'read into it' any more than what's
there, especially about the 'normal' trash that goes
on in this NG.

Lancer,
I'm aware of that. It's too bad that most of
that discussion deals with misconceptions.

This is much better than all the talk of gay sex.
All actually did was block 3 accounts and it all went away!

Do a Google search for the antenna testing Brass did while at the Huntsville
NASA center. Very interesting reading.

Tnom reads newsgroup posts the same way he reads an S-meter.

I read exactly what you said.............
Something about dragging out misconcepts.
It seems to me that you may be the one that
believes in misconcepts. There is a easy way
to determine this. It's done by asking you a
simple yes or a no question.

Do you believe a shorter antenna can be made
to show more gain than the 102" SS whip.?
yes or no

I bet the results of your test were unrepeatable. I think your X-terminator
generated a minor lobe in the direction of the recieve antenna due to the
coils and a funky RF ground and other variations in the pattern.

I think he fudged the numbers. Like I said, if anyone has one of those
X-terminators in my area I'll be more than happy to run a test. In fact, I can
run it with a few other CB antennas I have laying around, including 102"
fiberglass and magnetic SS whips, a short center-loader from RS, a couple
helical dummy-loads, and I even think there's a rubber-ducky in the scrap heap.
And I can test them properly, mapping a field from my truck to just outside the
near-field, using an unmodified AM radio (unmodulated), no QD connectors, tuned
with an FSM, measurements for forward and reflected power, and DC voltage
measured at the radio during transmit. Hell, I'll even punch a hole in the roof
for this test!
