Oh, c'mon now...if that statement were correct, I could squeeze a full-size 160-meter inverted vee on my 100x100-foot city lot. (234/1.8 = 130 feet - bingo! I'm on 160!) The first statement is correct, 468 divided by the frequency in megahertz gives you the approximate dimensions of a half-wave dipole, in feet (approximate means, the 468 figure comes from an assumption of the velocity factor of the wire, based on its diameter, conductivity and such. The non-adjusted formula for a half-wave in free space, in a vacuum, is 492 divided by the frequency in megahertz). The formula for the approximate length of a quarter-wave vertical antenna is 234 divided by the frequency in megahertz. Hope this helps. -- J o h n B a s t i n K 8 A J S [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.geocities.com/~tarquin Subscribe/unsubscribe, feedback, FAQ, problems http://njdxa.org/dx-news To post a message, DX NEWS items only, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives available at http://www.mail-archive.com/dx-news%40pro-usa.net/ This is the DXR reflector sponsored by the NJDXA http://njdxa.org

[DXR] Antenna Question
Anyone know off the top of their head the numerator in the formula for calculating the length of a dipole? I want to say 468? ki6ht Subscribe/unsubscribe, feedback, FAQ, problems http://njdxa.org/dx-news To post a message, DX NEWS items only, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives available at http://www.mail-archive.com/dx-news%40pro-usa.net/ This is the DXR reflector sponsored by the NJDXA http://njdxa.org
Re: [DXR] DXCC Century Club
I guess I meant "honor-roll equivalents". There may be no Honor Roll pe-se on 160, 80, etc. but I still would like to see everyone within the top 10 in each listing.

Re: [DXR] DXCC Century Club
QST Listings were dropped when the DXCC Yearbook was introduced - way back in 1993 You get the yearbook if (1) you updated your credits the past year or (2) you are CURRENT on the Honor Roll. Perhaps some that didn't get a yearbook have dropped OFF the Honor Roll because of added countries like Temotu and Chesterfield. 73, Dick, W2YE Subscribe/unsubscribe, feedback, FAQ, problems http://njdxa.org/dx-news To post a message, DX NEWS items only, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives available at http://www.mail-archive.com/dx-news%40pro-usa.net/ This is the DXR reflector sponsored by the NJDXA http://njdxa.org
Re: [DXR] DXCC Century Club
I wish they would include ALL the Honor Roll memebers in each category in the yearbook, regardless of whether they submit or not. It would make the listing more meaningful. 73 - Jim AD1C It was my understanding that they DO list all Honor Roll members, at least in the Mixed, Phone, CW, and RTTY listings. NOT so for the single band awards. Tom N4KG GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO! Juno offers FREE or PREMIUM Internet access for less! Join Juno today!

Re: [DXR] DXCC Century Club
Jim, If I read the info correctly on page 2 of the latest DXCC yearbook it says the following: "DXers are shown in the listings only if they are on the Honor Roll on a particular mode or if their totals on a band or mode have increased during the year..." This means all Honor Roll members are shown each year, not dropped off if they have not submitted cards during that year. Is my interpretation correct? 73 Don K5AQ Subscribe/unsubscribe, feedback, FAQ, problems http://njdxa.org/dx-news To post a message, DX NEWS items only, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives available at http://www.mail-archive.com/dx-news%40pro-usa.net/ This is the DXR reflector sponsored by the NJDXA http://njdxa.org
