Well - yes - I think you are missing something - let's say - since I don't have the EXACT value - that the radio stops working at 8.5 volts - and you have .4 volt drop between the battery and the load

Ha! Glad someone said it out loud -- this has been my surmise also. I would be interested in hearing from someone who's better versed in antenna theory whether or not this is in fact correct! 73 John

Just a thought here. If we could get a large inflatable mast, such as the 2.5 m ones used by yachties as danbouys, could we not wind a coil round the bottom, then tape wire up the shaft and use? To

Does it really matter? According to K6XX analysis of current drain during transmit, the current drawn by the power amplifier is largely unaffected by voltage. As a result, that 1 watt that we could

I really like Barry's new cover and battery charger jack, nice job. I am sure they spent some hours figuring that out with the limited space. If you have followed some of my earlier posts on

Has anyone thought of using an inexpensive fly fishing reel. I have used them in the past for dipoles & long wires & they work great. Also large fishing snap swivels come in handy with a wire antenna.

The MP-1 is made and sold in the USA. Details from www.superantennas.com. You can order over the phone by credit card - the antenna arrived quite quickly. I might be persuaded to sell mine, but as

Just for fun, I connected the ATX to my IC-756PRO. On the other antenna socket was my 5 band vertical. On the spectrum display I could then quickly check the difference in received signal strength and

I have it for the VR-500 and have been happy with it.

Hi Julian, This discussion is getting better and better. OK I have seen and corrected the URL in another message. Tks anyway. As for the wire element dipole, although it might be lighter, you cannot

What's the difference between an MP1 and the ATX Walkabout antenna? Here in the UK I can only find the ATX. Thinking of getting an FT817 for my frequent stops in hotels. Regards, Gav GM0WDD
