    Steve Huff

    Good going Steve Huff, a great accomplishment. But the electric cars leave a little of the good ol days behind. No loud engine noise with the aroma of burnt gas, all the Honeys hanging around, all the racing going on in the parking lot after the main drag races. The racing impression it leaves...

    Well it appears the 5 element beam needs to be put back up. After 20years up it needed repair and clean up. This is a Crusader 10K 5 element yagi beam antenna, with up dates and make look pretty so it works better. I mostly used it make contacts with South pacific island stations. Now Hong Kong...

    Hong Kong tonight......

    Thats a great contact, way to go. Out here in the So Ca Mojave Desert I have heard Japanese, I think fishing boats probably near Japan. Hearing a Deslie engine in the back ground audio of there transmissions at a constant RPM makes me think it was a fishing boat. I called several times but no...

    weather band

    Hello All: Anything can be modified, but it sure is taking the long long way to get there. That modification is just plan not practical. Cheaper, easier, and way less hair pulling would be to use a inexpensive scanner radio. Keeping an ear on the weather is a great help. I know got caught in a...

    Side by side phased Yagis?

    Hello all: The trick thing with stacked vertical beams is setting up phasing coax switch that can switch the beams in phase or 180 degrees out of phase. The in phase mode the beams work normally. But out of phase you have only the gain of one antenna, but you will have significant null -30 to...

    4 element beam

    Hello. It appears to be a Hy-Gain 4element beam antenna, what band or frequency don't know. The driven element is electrically isolated from the boom. Which may not allow the duel gamma matches work. The original matching system was a hair pin matching system. You can see the hair pin in the...

    Engine noise

    Its hard to help out when your not there. But as said before the noise source is the place to start. I take it you have ignition noise. Are the spark plugs, wires, rotor cap, and rotor old and wore out, needing replacement????? I have seen old spark wires arc all over the place as the...

    Engine noise

    Yes thats also a good call grounding all the body parts. One the best things I did in my Ford truck was to connect the fire wall to the hood and front fenders. Then ground the exhaust pipes in two different locations on the pipes to the frame and body. Jay in the Grate Mojave Desert
