LB was a friend of mine and an amazing guy. He also was a charter member and frequent presenter at our East Tennessee DX Association, and (if not already known by the list) an Elecraft K2 owner.

There is still a lot of mystery and mystic in propagation and sunspot prediction, but a lot of antenna theory of the 1960's has been hardened in science. The foundation of electromagnetic radiation is soundly grounded in Maxwell's Equations - but they are a difficult study all in themselves. I give a lot of credit to LB Cebik W4RNL (SK) for his modeling skills and studies into antennas of various types. 73, Don W3FPR On 9/16/2018 6:57 PM, donov...@starpower.net wrote: > Hi Bob, > > > You and W4MLE (SK) are both correct about antenna and propagation > theory, based on the universally accepted definition used in science > and > engineering: > > > Theory: a well-substantiated explanation of some aspect of the natural > world, based on a body of facts that have been repeatedly confirmed > through observation and experiment. > ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to k...@comcast.net ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html Message delivered to arch...@mail-archive.com
