Now I remember why I wrote you off as a total idiot ...

Just another ignorant cowardly retard with a gmail account posting from
a open server. What a big surprise.

Another idiotic, know-it-all, remark which leaves your ignorance hanging
in a sea of stupidiy ... albasani is a free server, set up to provide
free speech (however, some idiots just feel better when the pay for free
things, to them, and you, I say, go for it!--I do not waste a second of
my time protecting idiots from themselves. Most computer savvy would
use such ... and the Gmail? Most computer savvy would also use it,
along with Thunderbird and K9 (K9 makes gmail spam filtering fool
proof--if one is savvy enough to set it up correctly ... ) And, perhaps
the main reason why, I can pass out my email with absolutely immunity to
angry/childish-fools/spam/phishing/scams/etc. ...

Sounds like you know about as much about software applications as you do
antennas--however, I do realize your plight, if you only spoke about
those things you had a valid/up-to-date education in, you would have to
remain silent, IMHO ...

No, moron, I made a know something post which you elected not to do.

albasani is a free server, set up to provide
free speech

Which you abuse.

(however, some idiots just feel better when the pay for free

You are just chock full of bad assumptions aren't you. I'm using my
ISP's news server, which costs nothing "extra".

I do not waste a second of my time protecting idiots from themselves.

Oh my! What superiority complex you have! It's just to bad for you it
is an empty threat.

Yes, you are savvy enough to be an anonymous Trolling idiot.

I'm savvy enough to use one handle with an email address from my ISP and
use my ISP's news server.

antennas--however, I do realize your plight, if you only spoke about

I don't use antenna software programs to do "antennas" as the
calculations are just algebraic and can be done on calculators but I
could understand why you would need them as a crutch.

Well, it is fun, to every once-in-a-while, unplonk you, give yas' a nice

Yeah, you are kind of funny in a perverse way. You don't came across an
idiot with a superiority complex every day.

Dozing off are we? Attention span around 10 minutes or less? Make no
mistake, and you have made plenty, you have been asleep all along jerk.

However, I did think his radio was a "cheapie" with no real antenna
jack. And, since the Ant-60 comes with an alligator clip so it can
attached to the whip, it only reinforced "my guess." And, if that were
not enough to lead me astray, someone else recommended a long wire
attached to the whip (a "fix" I frequently use on radios I travel with,
although I do use a current balun to provide improved performance on
most SW freqs by taking the, generally, low impedance of the long wire
and matching it to the multi-kilo-ohm impedance of the whip ...

No problem though, since having first hand experience with the Ant-60,
and if it were mine, I would toss it in the trash, attach a ~60 ft, and
get it in the air as high as possible, sanely taking into consideration
the environment I am deploying it in. Then provide the antenna with a
suitable DC ground, 1mh choke, or so, across the jack to grnd ... again,
better, IMHO ... (I have to admit, the reel is handy on the Ant-60, I
have to wind mine up around a short length of 8" PVC pipe.) Very handy
"dangled" out the porthole of a ship ...

It would give him increased reception and eliminate any danger of any
type of voltage on the "hot" antenna ...

Mistake one.

You mislead yourself - mistake three.

That's all very nice but has nothing to do with your previous
contentious posts.

That's all very nice smith but you are still a cowardly anonymous
Trolling idiot. Go redeem yourself elsewhere as I'm not interested jerk.
