Schematic of the 4 tube radio, experimentally built in a way of the radio-pioneers (1910-1945). The radio acts as a cascade type receiver when the antenna coil has a high self-inductance, with lower self-inductances of the antenna coil you can put in a mixing process with the oscillator. Perhaps...

Experimental receiver for VLF. I received electromagnetic (radio) signals between 14 and 22 KHz with a capacitor of 4,7 NF over the showed coil. The schematic is identical to that of the storm detector IV (with the 6088 Tube), the coil is differently constructed. There is one more transistor...

This is a one valve [tube] radio that believe it or not I constructed 48 years ago. It remained lost but was discovered again during a recent house move. The valve used is a battery R.F. pentode dating from around 1948 on a B7G base. The type number is DF91 or the American equivalent, the 1T4....

Observations of electromagnetic (radio) signals on very low frequencies, 0 KHz - 10 KHz. Observed 10 may 2008, approx. 23.00 hour on 4,5. KHz: next to the original radio resonance of 4,5 KHz there is another resonance (spectrum on approx. 10 KHz), that comes in and fades away after 30 minutes....

Jim discusses two Network Tools that everyone already has. George digs into the junk box and comes up with a 9-volt battery clip tip. Tommy talks about using the Burn and Dodge tools to get better detail out of your photos. This month’s spotlight is on the Basic Stamp Microcontroller. We...

John Moyle Field Day 2009, We operated from QF12LT for the 24 Hours and started to setup Friday night. It was a very wet and windy days with the wind getting up to 100 kph we had to have the caravan tied down well, We had some very good contacts on all 6mtr 2mtr 70cm 23cm 13cm bands with some...

On Saturday, April 21, 2007, The University of Tennessee Amateur Radio Club (UTARC) flew an experimental weather balloon to test an APRS transmitter and on-board video. The following is a 10 minute highlight video of the flight from pre-launch, to launch, ascent, cutdown, descent, landing, and...

Many mobile antenna installers fail to follow simple rules in their installation. This often results in a setup that has high losses or poor radiation patterns. High losses rob you of your output power. !! This is a VERY simplified video covering a complex subject.

Clip of 80m high rotaiting antena on the train platform. HF large antena for broadcast Radio station from 3Mhz to 30Mhz installation on the train platforn to rotating antenna pattern. Very impressive.
