Ive no idea why Roadpro or Procomm did what they do. The Solarcon MaxOptimizer, replacement for Imax 2000, has a 12" 4th segment to add in for 11M "Optimizing".
The posted quote from directdepot.com doesn't mean it wasn't originally statements from a Solarcon representative; surely sounded as...
Good luck! Share it with your tree climber
There are a few question to answer; perhaps avoiding trouble of your own making:
How are you attaching to tree?
What is your ground plane?
I suggest appropriate size copper crush washers at the two antenna joints.
By what means are you going to compare boxes? I don't recall fully but I think my last one arrived in a tube.
Walcot has MaxOptimizer. Has a short add-on section for 11M. Making it 4 total sections. My assumption is the other 3 sections may be slightly shorter for 10M.
Amazon still...
Not on point; but; I find BJ Radio Nut image of 1/4λ antenna with 4x 102" radials remarkably similar to my current primary antenna, hoisted to 23.5'. Destined for 1 full λ height AGL, by end of this month. Two major variations: [1] 5/8λ Imax 2000 monopole [2] 4x 103" (*) SS whips (formerly...
I'm only guessing there are 7 +/- segments on this 3/4 λ aluminum antenna. Each segment link is a weak point, correct?
What category is this antenna, mono, or dipole?
And what is that gizmo at the top of the antenna; what is it's reference name and purpose? I'm guessing its a "Ooh, Ooh...
When I was researching this awhile ago, I came to conclusion LK was key. That is, PM3-75LK has switch PM3-75 does not. So yours has the switch and voltage adjust screw?
As to Lithium compatible, IMO if the charger doesn't go into fast charge or "repair" (high voltage) modes its likely safe...
I'm interested to know why 14.5V?
I adjust my 200A power supply to 14.5V. Stryker 655 or 955 either will readout 13.7V draw. I presume a protection component in the werx
Might I guesstimate 14.5V for the benefit of greater watt output from linear amps? What boost might that be, 80W?
I have a PM3-75 (75 amps). It does not have the switch and voltage adjustment screw for the "fixed" single output mode. Perhaps this PM3 is an oddity and constant voltage output not enabled with this unit.
Tin Can posted side by side PM3-100 and PM4-100. Physical can container shape and size...
Tin Can, Alabama Buckeye here. PowerMax PM4-100 V PM3-100? I've a PM3-75 which does not have neither switch nor voltage set screw. Is that the same on your PM3-100?
You do realize this remark was nearly two years ago.
These are an alternative Power Supply. They are are battery chargers/maintainer. These might be use to maintain a bank of batteries. That's was what the PM3-75 is for me. PM3 V PM4 denotes # of modes. The 4th being constant set voltage...
Those two in the middle have become my #1x#2. The smoky flavor on the left is great on beef. The green Habanero great on anything but particularly ham. The other two are present on the condiment lazy Susan quite often as well.
I had a bumper crop of habaneros a several years ago. Dad had a...
Walmart and Jalapeños.
Absolutely the lowest price in my neck of the woods. While the local in town grocer is selling Jalapeños for $3.50+/lb Wally is letting 'em go of $1.18/lb.
Recently raised to $1.24.
Nitrogen and tame Jalapeños: Wally World had a shipment of huge peppers with stem ends...
I don't recall where you are residing, if not on a rock slab here is a suggestion:
Drill a hole 2' deep absolutely perpendicular, insert 20' top chain link fence rail, I think they are 1 5/8" OD.
Drill a hole with your garden hose water pressure. Attach 2-3' of hose end to a mop handle. Use...
You lowered 100d I-Vee apex to 5' AGL, the legs ends would be on the ground and your SWR is 1.5:1. There's a clue in that. para 5 below.
9' might have been misunderstood. Wild Weasel spoke of 9' distancing from reflectors, I believe was his inference. And this was when you were speaking of...
Halibut! That's the Fish Steak of the Sea. A real shame there isn't enough to go around, like fish sticks and Sriracha. Wouldn't dream of Sriracha on Halibut.
