John, Don't assume this guy takes note of anyone else's accomplishments! <G> Bill The only loop worth while is a full wave loop at the frequency of operation, the smaller you get in relation to natur
Jim, ....Please separate System R and actual Earth R ... It would certainly make life easier. Please tell us how this separation is to be accomplished... I think Mal's point is that we have to be ver
Have a steady tone around 136.5kHz. It is definitely from my PC, and the level was much reduced when the frame aerial was moved out into the garden, but still I must switch off the PC when listening
Rik, 0.17 hour = 63750 kWh (same in $). So getting rid of Think you figured the cost in watt-hours not kW-hours. Should be 63.750 kw-Hrs or about $6. Bill A __________________________________________
Hi Ole Buddy! I measured the gain today between my 90 metre perimiter vertical loop resonated on 137 khz and my vertical system. The vertical has a 20 db gain over the loop measuring the noise floor.
Alex, What kind of soil do you have? Also, what type of ground screen do you have under the antenna? The Lowfer guys in this area (eastern US) experience the opposite effect. In other words, as the g
Hi Dave, Bad: No rain for a couple of weeks means the ground is dry and the current is poor, <3A on 136 and 1.5A on 72k. Bad: Rugby appears to be back on. What kind of soil do you have? Also, what ty
Glowing MOSFETs may be a practical proposition before long...... Early 'April Fools Day' joke, right? Bill A _____________________________________________________________________ This e-mail has been
Mike, You mean you don't stay up all night like Bill??? Of course he does. All Easterners are alike! During the late hours John spends the time touching up his captures from the night before to make
Mal, Heck Bill even made a loop that was 25 feet by 25 feet and it still made it several hundred miles on less than a watt. This loop has a Q of ~400 (3/4" ID Cu pipe). Rac = ~.08 ohms so the current
