RE: [Elecraft] Attic Antenna
I'm surprised with all this talk of dipoles and doublets that no-one has mentioned loops. I'm not an antenna expert, but it has always seemed to me that the efficiency of an antenna is somewhat related to the amount of wire in the radiating element. You can get more wire in a loop round the periphery of an attic than you will get in a dipole strung in the apex of it. It may not give a 50 ohm match, but nor will the dipole except at one frequency. If you feed it with ladder line and a balun, or a very short length of co-ax, feeder losses will be kept to a minimum. That's what I use. 73 de Julian, G4ILO. K2 #392 G4ILO's Shack: http://www.g4ilo.com ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

[Elecraft] re attic antennas
Par Electronics end fed antennas (single band) are now rated at 100 watts, not QRP as I noted in my earlier e-mail, They appear to also make multiband antenna with a 20 watt rating as well. Sorry !!

[Elecraft] re attic antennas and ground radials
From the previous discussions, I agree that there is no magic in having low VSWR across many bands without a tuner or a resistor buried in the matching unit. However there is a way to have good vertically polarized radiation without ground radials. One example of these is the end-fed 1/2 wavelength vertical. If you wish to build one for a single band, there are several articles compiled within the archives of QST or you can buy one from PAR electronics. The cost is less than $60 for the 40 Meter unit and the cost is even lower for the higher band units. For reviews see e-ham at http://www.eham.net/reviews/detail/3632 . The single band version can handle 100 watts. The multiband version is only QRP rated at 20 watts. Re the antenna arrangement, it doesn't have to be perfectly straight nor perfectly vertical to work well. Of course the pattern will change. The matching is nothing more than a tuned circuit plus a coupling loop, no resistors !!. All 1/2 wave end fed antennas work quite well either purchased or home made. Good luck on building your own.!!

[Elecraft] OT-NASA
I was not NASA certified but worked with techs that were. They explained that minimum solder, ie concave verses convex solder blob, was due to not inspection of solder pad. If the solder was piled on the inspectors would reject it because they had a harder time determining cold solder pads, minimal solder allowed proper inspection of the pad. I was NASA certified and weight was the prime consideration...Most of our soldering involved high pin density cable connectors...Everything was inspected twice, first by our own QC, then by NASA...They did not want to see a filet at the solder cups of the connector pins, they wanted to see a void, with the wire little more than tacked into the cup...They did a pull test on every wire...No wicking or bird-caging of the stranded wire was allowed...All flux had to be removed and many connectors were crabbed due to the presence of flux... We did not do an lot of circuit boards, but minimum solder was still the rule...Circuit board technology in the late 60's was rather primitive by today's standards and most of our boards were fabricated in house in the photo lab...There weren't many moon-shots, so board manufacture count was low...

RE: [Elecraft] Z range KAT2 ?
Peter, The Impedance range that the KAT2 will match will be greater on the higher bands than the lower (just because of the math in the formulas for impedance of inductors and capacitors). So I hesitate to guess at an answer becuase you did not specify a frequency - I can add up the inductor and capacitor values and give a range for each. With a bit of work with a program like TLW (www.arrl.org), one could determine the impedance range for each band. It is an L network tuner with a series inductor range from 0 to 20.62 uH in 0.16 uH steps; while the shunt capacitor can range in value from 0 to 2423 pf in 10 to 12 pf steps. The shunt capacitor can be at either end of the inductor. Only the min and max values need to be entered for each component and configuration, so there would be 8 calculations for each band of interest. All in all, it is a wide impedance range, but will be more restricted on 160 meters than on 10 meters. This same principle applies to all Elecraft tuners and to other manufacturers of similar L network designs. 73, Don W3FPR -Original Message- Is it something like 5-1000 ?

[Elecraft] Re: Z range KAT2 ?
Thanks Don. I found that the my KAT2 tunes about everything ( endfed long- and shortwires, random length wire verticals with and without radials ( 100' asl ! ) on 80-40-20-15 where my LDG 200 Pro ( automatic atu ) fails definitely. LDG 200 claims to match ~ 5-1K and in order to judge the misperformace of my LDG200 I want to know the Z ranges on 80-4-20 of my KAT2, so that I can claim a LDG refund or repair. BTW, and a bit OT, I presume an external KAT 100 fits 100 W continuous. Could the KAT100 withstand 250 W SSB( speech SSB only, no CW no FM ) , if my sig is not rf clipped ( my old Datongs rf clippers ) and my transmissons are short ? If so, I'll get rid of the LDG and buy me a KAT100.

[Elecraft] K2 #4150 lives!
After building my K2 #5551, a very busy friend allowed me to build his, #4150. This had started life as a much earlier K2 for which he'd obtained upgrades, a new serial number and a set of pre-wound toroids to bring it up to the latest specification but unfortunately, due to time constraints, he'd had little opportunity to organise and get down to its construction. Problems encountered were: 1. No BFO signal at TP2 caused by fitting a 2N7000 instead of a J310 at Q24. (Doh!) 2. The BFO range didn't go down low enough to achieve the recommended CAL FIL settings. Gary advised fitting a 1 to 4pF capacitor between ground (X3/X4 grounding points and junction of X3/X4 and L33. With the K2 upside down, front panel towards you, it's the lead at the right hand side of L33). A 1.8pF capacitor reduced the BFO's lowest frequency while not affecting its upper frequency. 3. The frequency counter probe came apart and when it was repaired the series 10pF capacitor was forgotten, leading to some crazy, unstable readings (thanks for the reminder, Gary). 4. Excess current (3A) being drawn on 40m tuneup. L1 adjustment having little effect. All other bands tuned up just fine. This was traced to L25/L26 having been supplied with 16 turns each, rather than the specified 14 and 12, respectively. Everything tuned perfectly after correcting the number of turns. Moral - double-check others' work as well as your own! All in all, another super little rig, the building of which has given me enormous pleasure. Thanks Elecraft for a truly superb kit (that even an eejit like me can get right - twice!), thanks to my friend for trusting me to build it for him and a very special thanks to Gary AB7MY for super support. Now, how to get another K2 to build? Unfortunately, it's impossible to put one over on the domestic supervisor HI!

LDG 200 claims to match ~ 5-1K It's not as simple as that. The impedance may be more or less reactive, and the reactance can be either capacitive or inductive. I would expect that tuners of different design might work better or worse with particular combinations of resistance and reactance.

If so, I'll get rid of the LDG and buy me a KAT100. Keep in mind that the KAT100 requires a K2. So if your 250 watts comes from a QRP K2 plus amplifier, it would work. But if you're planning to use a different transceiver, it would not. I believe that the KAT100 is exactly the same as the KAT2 in terms of network values and algorithms; so if your KAT2 matches everything so should the KAT100! -- 73, Vic, K2VCO Fresno CA http://www.qsl.net/k2vco ___ Elecraft mailing list Post to: Elecraft@mailman.qth.net You must be a subscriber to post to the list.

David, G3UNA, wrote: ...My 'doublet' was nearly a loop, ie it followed the beams around the loft. The ends were left open, about a foot apart... I have some questions for the group. How would one decide whether the ends should be left open, versus connected together to make a loop? (I never could figure out how to model antennas using EZNEC. It should be called HARDNEC.) Does it make a lot of difference? Using a tuner near the feedpoint, which way would give a better match on more bands (160-10m), open or closed ends? Which way would yield stronger signals in the most directions? Is it the case that, below a certain total wire length, the ends should be left open, but above that length, they should be connected together? I guess the only way an indoor antenna of typical length would match on 160m, even with a tuner, would be if the ends were connected together and the whole thing was treated as a very bent end-fed wire working against ground and a counterpoise.

[Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net Announcement
Good Evening, The house is cozy warm -- both Sam and I are fed and happy. The critters are staying outside these days and they seem to enjoy it too. I've been hearing a deer bound into the woods as I leave the house after dark several days this week. She does not go far because I don't seem to frighten her much. The lawn is the only grass for many miles and she likes a change in diet now that the fir needles are stiff with late season age. A few nights ago I was serenaded by an owl - elk duet. Interesting mixture of tones. The owl was carrying the bass line while adding percussive effects. I wonder what they were talking about? A few nights ago 40 meters was very, very quiet; much like 80 meters gets an hour before dawn. Twenty meters has been supporting comms each morning so my friend in Oklahoma and I can chat about the weather and construction projects. Speaking of building I came close but have not finished the drywall work. My nephew was too busy to come help with the last few ceiling pieces but I did get the taping and mudding done on all the rest. A few more days and I'll be done. I did take a couple of days off from the dust to volunteer for an ARES exercise, travel into town for legal matters, and study a number of subjects. I am getting closer to understanding an open source compiler with multiple front ends and multiple back ends. This will help me get a few neural network ideas I've been mulling over into a microcontroller. I'll need to use scaled arithmetic instead of floating point but the slide rule discussions on QRP-L have reminded me of my time remembering where the decimal point goes after a long string of calculations. If I have adjusted Mickey's hands properly I may have the correct Zulu time listed below. Remember: the local time stays the same while the UTC changes. This is to keep my feeding time set in stone. I shoveled out the kitchen after renovating the squirrel ravaged insulation. I awarded myself by cleaning the counters and getting my oven in working order. It made me dinner quite handily.
