Conjugate 1a: joined together especially in pairs : COUPLED a conjugate relationship - Good! b: acting or operating as if joined - Murky 2a: having features in common but opposite or inverse in some particular - bad, bad, bad, bad... It's the 2a's that gets to me.

You did fine for me. I was only asking because many newbies, and a few old farts, find this confusing. I'm not having any issues. Just trying to get things simpler. You see, when I was learning to communicate with an audience as a young minister an older, wiser, & more experienced preacher...

I don't have a 3.1 SWR. That is hypothetical. What I do have is the inclination to see a contradiction in the idea that a lower SWR is not as good as a farther swinging meter needle, or in my case, more red lights turned on. In my experience, 50 Ohms is presented to the rig by a tuner, or...

Two slinkies. Steel. Also wire on each end of the slinkies.

Nope Yes Slinky dipole in the attic. 80m -10m. Don't know. It's hooked up xceiver>coax>tuner>coax>1:1 Xformer>450 Ohm twinlead> dipole New. Don't know. Most of the questions were hypothetical.

I had a cb and it was a front mic. I talked all over the place with it. It was solid material, too. Good hefty weight. And it had a front mic. ...then I woke up and I didn't even have a cb. I was CQing my alarm clock.

So, I just pretend that my peak forward is really not at the 3.1:1 SWR although my tuner says it is. The tuner is lying about the 3.1 but not the peak forward. If so, then maybe it's also lying about the peak forward... I tell you, you can't trust these tuners to tell a straight story.

Here's the next question: If my peak forward is at a 3.1:1 SWR, indicating a resonant system, what's the point? After all, the 3.1 SWR will cause my transmitter to fold back so severely I may as well be transmitting on a dry noodle, yes/no? Explain in simple terms; remember, some of us hail from...

I will try it in the mobile and see how it goes. Maybe with a lower gain antenna I'll hear less mess.

Well. I feel you. My wife can find the single blade of grass I missed.

Some people have their stuff so neat I almost want to puke... :sick:;)

And there's the rub. Apparently it does not have sufficient internal filtering, and I am not the fellow a person wants looking inside a radio. On a Baojie BJ-218 it sounds like the NOAA weather bleeding in. Here's what I'm getting on the AT-778UV...

I am not sure of the source, except it gets worse as I go up the 2m band from 146 MHZ. I'm going to park in the 152/153 MHZ are and see what happens.

When I look at these I become confused about which to get. They seem to be worthless when they are receive only... shows what I don't know. I just wish it had the rejection the other radios are/were equipped with.

A fellow once said he had mixed emotions. His mother in law had driven his new pickup truck over a cliff... There isn't anything about this radio for the money I didn't like, until... I put a Tram 1481 antenna up (it was a gift) increasing my tx/rx range over the smaller verticals I'd been...

Yes, the Moxgen. zip download. At one time it was online only. Then it could be downloaded. https://moxgen.software.informer.com/1.0/

If I can I'd enjoy doing this. I have a legal type accepted CB. I can use. I have made numerous contacts with it without an amp. In fact, I have made numerous QRP contacts on the Amateur HF bands. It's much easier with good conditions, but try anyway. You never know until you try.

What? "replace r67 with 10m" With 10 meters of what?(n)

The first Moxons I built were from the online program. Later, I downloaded the app, and apparently began having issues with resonance.

Ahh, no. Sad... RIP.
