Does anybody know which local radio club(s) will be providing back up

And also what frequency(s) will be used for the control net(s)? I know
last year it was the Hazel Park Radio Club but I can't find their web
site on the net currently for contact information.

Will you be using your 96 Dodge van for an antenna platform?

Or will you be operating from Concord?

I don't own a van.

So you were lying to Frank when you posted this Aug 1?


I did just for grins and giggles Frank. On my old 1/4 wave 6m mag mount, I
used on my old Dodge minivan, I measured 490pf. The base was 4.75 inches in
diameter. The base was placed on a steel sheet using 3 sheets of notebook
paper. Notebook paper is around 0.003 inches thick, so that gives me the
0.010 inch spacing. Plus this mount also used a thin sheet of rubber over
the foil making the spacing a bit higher, thus you would expect the
capacitance to be down a bit from the calculated value. So the value I
measured is about what I expected. It is important that the foil be intact
on the bottom. If missing then the measured value will be much lower.

Can't educate the village idiot I see. Oh well, I like my new 04 ride
better. I've only put on 7900 miles since I took delivery at the dealer last
December. Only took about 4 weeks to get it built after placing the order
and came in at a sticker price of $38,400. Leather interior, factory 180
watt sound system with 6-way Pioneer speakers, built in Nav system with DVD
player and LCD map display/voice promtps for turn by turn directions, 10
disk CD changer, dual zone climate control etc.

You have reduced yourself to taking cheap shots. So are you going to
address the facts of the issue and do the test or not?

Over 38G? (sound of whistle here)!! If you bought a mini van, it must
have been a Chrysler Town and Country at that price. As far as vans go,
I'm a Dodge fan, then comes Chevy, then Ford...where trucks are
concerned, I'm a Ford freak until they build something that rides like a
Ford and where the engine runs like a Ford, but lasts as long as a
Chevy. When it comes to off road, gimme Jeep. Anyhoooo, are you going to
be running a radidio in this new van? Are you making a swivel ball mount
or what? I hate making these decisions regarding new vehicles.
