Re: [Repeater-Builder] OT Power Factor
Chuck is right. Typically power factor correction is an industrial issue (not residential). Perhaps the utilities are implementing power factor correction penalties to resi customers in other parts of the country, but not in my neck of the woods. I've put many PFC proposals together for industrial facilities, as I'm an outside salesman for an electrical distributor.

The device is called Power-Save 1200 and you can see it at www.power-save.com. From what I can glean from the web site it's a power factor correction device that attaches to the load center wiring panel.via 3 wires; 2 are attached to a dedicated 20 amp 2 pole 220 volt circuit breaker, the other remaining wire is attached to ground. The instructions go on to say that this device is designed to condition all power consumed by inductive loads (electric motors) in the home regardless of installation location. SNIP Yahoo!

Die Hard 2 featured a lot of Kenwood ham equipment, including a TS940S and UHF hand-helds.

The Orange Box duplex paramedic radio was the original Motorola adventure into the medical telemetry function. It consisted of (all inside the orange box case) an HT220 used as an exciter, and a PA out of a micor mobile low power unit and a duplexer from a mobile phone (I think from a Mocom 70 series radio). The receiver was straight out of the micor also. It had a limited production VCO that is fed from a differential amplifier that amplifies the typical 50mv signal retreived from the skin surface from heart activity and the amplified voltage feeds the variable VCO which modulates the EKG signal acrosss the air. It also has what we called micky mouse mux so that the audio from the ekg and from the voice were transmitted simultaniously and separated at the ekg console at the hospital to give both ekg and duplex voice simultaniously. It was an interesting radio and it worked fairly well. The next version was the APCOR series, but that is another story. The portables they used started out as HT200 radios with the telescoping antenna which were accurate at one time for LA County FD. I also saw an HT220 on a later show. I never saw an MT500 that I recall. It was mostly older equipment they used. The Defib was a PhysioControl Lifepack 3 if I remember correctly. They were big and heavy, but they did get the job done. I don't remember the mobile radio. I would have to watch an episode to know the mobile radio. It was probably a Mocom 70, but I won't bet on it. So - that's what I remember.

I suspect the 1.51 price is for one of the smaller rolls, not the general 3/4 x 66' roll.

The pricing varies widely, depending upon the width and the length of the roll. The same company also carries Scotch 88 and 130-C tapes in various sizes, as well as Scotchkote sealing compound. Go to www.mcmaster.com/ and enter tape in the search box. Page 3348 lists almost any tape made by 3M in many categories. Since mail-order shipping costs often exceed the cost of the product, always look into buying such items over the counter at your local electrical supply house. Some electrical distributors give Hams the same discount as contractors. 73, Eric Lemmon WB6FLY -Original Message- From: Repeater-Builder@ mailto:Repeater-Builder%40yahoogroups.com yahoogroups.com [mailto:Repeater-Builder@ mailto:Repeater-Builder%40yahoogroups.com yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Nathan Bailey Sent: Saturday, August 23, 2008 4:47 PM To: Repeater-Builder@ mailto:Repeater-Builder%40yahoogroups.com yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [Repeater-Builder] We all Love Super 33+ - Was Antennaconnectors sealing instructions Shameless plug warning...
