Re: [time-nuts] Coax cable for volute antenna
For some reason my outlook express gets really confused with these mail lists (or maybe it's me). That said, when I see my replies, they look perfectly fine in my outlook express, plus when I look in in the archived browser the message seems to be in correct order too. Maybe someone can fill me in how to reply without having to type in all the header information which is a real pain. - Original Message - From: Rex To: Discussion of precise time and frequency measurement Sent: Thursday, October 17, 2013 1:37 AM Subject: Re: [time-nuts] Coax cable for volute antenna I wish you had learned to post a new message, rather than replying to a previous message with an unrelated new subject.

Re: [time-nuts] Coax cable for volute antenna
I was wondering while I was messing with this project if anyone has tried a Lindenblad for 1.575 GHz? I can see making the phasing lines would be problematical, but the pattern looks right. What I intend on making to start with is this one. http://lea.hamradio.si/~s53mv/navsats/analog.html and using an MAALSS0042 as the amp right at the antenna. Thanks for the links, I may have found what I need.

Would running RG-316 thru a hollow brass tube work? These are available at most hobby stores in a variety of sizes and they are solderable.

Re: [time-nuts] Coax cable for volute antenna
Lacking any actual hardline, I ran RG-174 in brass tube from the hardware store and had excellent results.

Re: [time-nuts] Coax cable for volute antenna
Go to eBay and search for semi rigid coax If you know the RG designation for the specific size you are looking for, search for that. Mouser and Digikey don't carry. And the people that do will have minimum buys you are unlikely to be able to afford. Look for listings by eBay id: de_w7eme Or contact Jeremy directly (W7EME) and see if he can help you out. --- Graham / KE9H == On 10/16/2013 11:30 PM, Jim Lux wrote: On 10/16/13 8:26 PM, quartz55 wrote: I've been searching for the small copper hardline I can use for the feed on the gps volute (egg beater) antenna.
