Can I use my old coax and mounts from my 26 mhz days on a new uhf rig?

Probably, but how much of your signal do you want to waste, heating up the
coax?
With some types, it wouldn't be a surprise to see 3/4 of your power lost
between the rig and the antenna.. Andrews LMR-400 is good, as is all large
hardline.


If the line is short, the type won't make much difference unless it's
RG-174 (really thin stuff). E.g, for a length of 18' @ 500 MHz I got
the following loss figures:

1/2" HL -- 0.3 dB
RG-17 -- 0.3
9913 -- 0.5
RG-8 -- 0.9
RG-58 -- 1.5
RG-174 -- 4.9


N connectors are much better than the old "UHF" connectors (so
named when 30 MHz was "Ultra-high frequency")


I don't know where you get your information but it's wrong. UHF
connectors work fine for UHF. And to the best of my knowledge, the
current limits of the UHF spectrum (300 MHz to 3 GHz) were defined
long before the connectors ever existed.


Frank;
Back in the 40's UHF was defined a low as 100 MHZ. I had a
friend in school that had a Hallicrafters S-36A, covered 27 to 143
MHZ. S-36's were made in the 40's. The front panel had a "logo" on
it, " Ultra High Frequency Communications Receiver". I think that
the UHF connectors first showed up in the mid 1930's.

time

in person. Are you ****ers french?

This is now between you and I, I've told you where I'll be. Now
lets see who is lacking the courage to run his pie hole to my
face, you ****ing coward.

You hide your identity,

I've told you my real name, you keep insisting I'm Peebles
since you've claimed to have ran my plate from the last visit.

scared to publicly answer my question
as to where exactly you will be at

I'll be in Madison heights Michigan for three days, attending
the Woodward dream cruise. This is old news already, pussy.

can't be trusted and isn't worth
wasting my time on.

Huh? You said I'd never show up, and I'd never tell you the
details, well I'm doing both and now you can't waste your
time!?

what details? you didnt email anything that is a lie

leland and n8 are in qrz. you have no real name and no real address
you are nobody. the only way you can prove you went somewhere is with
pictures ROTFLMFAO and even then it might be some one else taking them
not you lol

you have every right to ask that question leland. email addresses can
be faked. who knows who sent you that email. could be anybody. for
that matter usenet posts can be faked. the only way to prove it is
steve is to get his real name phone number and address. other wise its
a waste of your time.

Steveo is a waste of everybody's time. I offered to meet him once and he
said it was too far to drive. He chickened out. You can do a google search
to find the relevant post. Well he lied because he later claimed to have
shown up at my apartment. Guess it wasn't too far after all. He was just too
much of a chicken to meet me at the place I posted the address for the
meeting. You can find that post as well. So I have zero reason to believe
him whatever he says now. If he can't provide his real name, address, and
phone number he can forget it. He has mine and I don't really give a flip.
So what is he so scared of anyway?
