Update 3rd Oct. Well, its all very confusing. This 2245A, ie 670/670A clone is throwing up all sorts of problems. I had to reconnect the 1st ift, when I...
Hi all, this from Sacha. I've been otherwise occupied - rugby instead of radio - so can only now put in my pennyworth re the MIMCO clones as mentioned by Ben....
hi Ben - well Ted says the Aeneas was merely a 'far east trader' i.e. a cargo ship with limited passenger accomodation hence no cabin niceties such as...
All good stuff, Sacha (Sasha ?) - most interesting ! Never knew there was a 2245B, in all the EUG newsletters it wasn't once mentioned, at least according to...
hi there, GW4RYK, sorry do not know your name and ted gone awol ( sailing again). you should ask ted re sets not mentioned in Lighthouse not even heard of by...
Hi, Can anyone please tell me whether the EUG is planning to visit the Llandudno Radio Rally for both days this event is scheduled for? Thanks for any help. ...
Sacha, I sincerely apologise to you if my request for information has offended you - as would appear to be the case, judging from the tone of your reply. I...
nope, definitely not perfect me ! sorry if comment offended you or anyone. fact is I made our patron Chris a G6 when as we all know he is a G0, mea culpa....
... Well, Sacha, a scanner - that's a real surprise ! Was that another one- off, or a production item ? Not that it scans any useful bands, though ! Anthony...
hi all, from sacha, will make certain ted has some info sheets on the 1810 scanner when he goes to the Llandudno rally, it was a military style case and ted...
Can somebody explain to me why if a diople impedance is 75 ohms in free space. And eary manufactures like KW and Vangaurd, Pye etc and also Marconi with their...
... free ... Marconi ... as ... a ... coax ... to ... 75 ... the standard comercial world of PMR radios feeds the transmitter into a standard 1/4 wave antenna...
Thank you, Roy. I've passed it on. 73, Louis VE3AWA ... free ... Marconi ... as ... a ... coax ... to ... 75 ... the standard comercial world of PMR radios...
Actually a 1/4 wave antenna perpendicular to perfect ground plane is about 32~36 ohms. Thus a properly installed 1/4 wave will generally show an SWR of about...
my techi pal suzie tells me that she was taught that the impedance of a half wave dipole in 'free space' has no bearing on practical aerials since they are not...
Why 50 Ohms? It seems the choice for 50 ohms was based on the power handling capacity of the line. Note also that if your dipole does present a feed point...
The word is Pi not PYE, Pi is used as a description of the output circuit because the configuration looks like the symbol for Pi, use of PYE in this context is...
Hello Ron, Tks, but I believe PYE was in reference to a company manufacturing communications equipment. Than again, I'm over here so what do I know? 73, Louis...
Hi All. Ive had this 880/4 for ny on 30 years, i bought it from Johns Radio in Bradford many moons ago and its time to pass it on . Besides its to big for the...
Hi Roy, I don't know if we've ever met, but I have the Eddystone Museum in Farnham, Surrey. It's made up of a large collection acquired from Richard Baker...
Hi Louis, Â Yes, Pye was one of our finest electronic manufacturers, making a wide variety of equipment. For my first ten years in Broadcasting I used Pye...
Hi folks yes you are quite right the ouput CCT of most pre transistor PA sets was indeed a Pi cct not a PYE cct as the configuration of the output components...
Alan: You may not realise that if you reply directly to a posting, it appears on the board for the whole world to see. Perhaps it might be better if you and...
Hello, fellow EUGers. I'd like to know if other Eddystone users have found the same thing as I have observed. I'm very fortunate to have both an 888A and an...
Joe, I likewise have both 888A and 830/4 models. The 888A has a different reduction ratio on the drive (lower) because of the reduced frequency coverage on the...
