    Feed line question for 2 meter LPDA beam

    Well, I'm already in possession of 2 elks. If they don't do what i need them to do, I'll get yagi's. I really don't need the 70cm part of the equation but it's better to have it and not need it. TY

    Feed line question for 2 meter LPDA beam

    I have never tried this so i wanted to get some input. I have a specific need to use an ELK log periodic beam for 2m/70cm in a permanent installation that will be installed static. I will never be turned. I need to use the lowest loss coax thats right for 2m. The install will be 100 feet or...

    Stryker 955 Amp.

    socially unacceptable ? Not as far as im concerned. I personally think reflect is more important than SWR even though they are a product of each other. Im looking at reflect on a bird meter with the slug in reverse way more than im looking at swr. if my reflect is very low to zero, i would not...

    LP100A Thoughts on this.

    I just priced the lp700 with a 10kw coupler at $1000 USD even. plus tax of course. Ouch. BUT by the time you buy a used bird 43, peak kit and a shitload of slugs, you are at $1k easy. The fact that you dont need to change slugs and you get peak / rms and reflect all at the same time, almost...

    RG316 jumpers ?

    I used a pl259 and rg400 bushing and it worked well. This video is pretty spot on and it worked well.

    RG316 jumpers ?

    Is there any reason you would not want to use 316 for jumpers on the bench. They are so much easier to deal with than RG400. I currently use it for BNC jumpers to the SA and the scope but im thinking id like to use it for all my 3ft jumpers on the bench for radio to amp to bird meter chain. For...

    Any AM Deadkey Input Difference for the RM Italy KL 503 vs KL 503HD?

    I have the older 503 that i just got in a deal and my testing shows that it likes a low RMS dead key. Im hitting it with 1.5 watts RMS / Bird average and getting over 250 Bird PEP out of it. I turned up the DK and it did not make much of a difference on PEP. I personally would not suggest you...

    Texas star modulator parts

    Here's Barketts response.. Major Bummer............ Hello I had them on order for many months with no luck in getting them. They promise to complete my order but never get around to it. Not sure what is going on with TS. I sure could sell many TS parts if I could get them. Thank you Barkett...
