Which one of super chief's ships had over 30 HF transmitters,
and all of them 1 KW or higher?


All "big-time radio communications experience" does not happen on HF,
30 transmitters is not a remarkable number of transmitters, and power
levels of a mere 1KW are distinctly small-time. But to satisfy your
criteria, here are a few examples of my assignments with more than 30
transmitters, 1KW or larger.

How many 200 KW and 600KW transmitters did the super corporal of ADA
operate?

With all kind wishes,

Hans Brakob
Master Chief Radioman, US Navy




Hello, Hans

Most interesting, indeed. Just out of curiosity, do you have an idea of
how
much power the Navy uses on the VLF stuff? Just curious. When you
start
talking 6 zeros in the power level, three zeroes *does* start to look
pretty
small time

QST had a story many years ago when the VLF station in Maine was first
opened. I remember
a picture of a man standing up inside the coax. Power was in the 2
Megawatt range.

John,

I wouldn't want to be standing up inside the coax when they fire *that* baby
up )
